- Which of the following statements about fuel cells is NOT true?a. A single fuel cell produces very low voltage, normally less than one volt.b. A fuel cell produces electricity through an electro-chemical reaction that combines hydrogen and oxygen to form water.c. A fuel cell is composed of two electrodes coated with a catalyst and separated from each other by an electrolyte and from the case by separators.d. In a fuel cell, catalysts are used to ignite the hydrogen; this causes a release of electrons or electrical energy.arrow_forwardfuel additive are being discussed. technician A says adding oxygenates to gasoline increases fuel economy. technician B says adding 10 percent ethanol to gasoline may boost the octane rating 2.5 to 3 points. who is correct?arrow_forwardWhat two elements make up fuel oil?arrow_forward
- The octane number of a fuel is the percentage of octane in that fuel. True Falsearrow_forwardTechnician A says that air-fuel ratios can be regulated by controlling the “on time” of the injectors. Technician B says that the air-fuel ratio can be regulated by controlling the pressure applied to the individual injectors. Who is correct? * 1 point a. Technician A b. Technician B c.

- gasoline volatility is being discussed. technician A says gasoline blended for summer use is more volatile than winter gasoline. technician B says in high altitude areas, fuel must be blended to have higher volatility.arrow_forwardTechnician A says that broken engine mounts can cause the fan to hit the shroud. Technician B says that missing or broken air dams can cause an engine to overheat. Who is correct? Select one: a. Technician A only b. Technician B only c. Both A and B d. Neither A nor Barrow_forwardOctane number is the measure of a fuel's ability to resist knocking. The higher the octane number, the more compression the fuel can withstand before detonating.

- Name the parts of a fuel injector.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about carbondioxide is not true?a. CO2 levels are highest when the air-fuel ratiois slightly leaner than stoichiometric.b. The production of CO2 is directly related tothe amount of fuel consumed; therefore,more fuel-efficient engines produce less CO2c. To reduce CO2 levels in the exhaust, engineers are working hard to decrease fuel consumption to keep CO2low.d. The concern for CO2 emissions is one of theprimary reasons for the delayed use of alternative fuels for automobiles.arrow_forwardTechnician A says that you may be able to smell antifreeze from a leaking heater core.
