Which of the following fuel is a mixture of butane and propane?

  1. LPG

  2. CNG

  3. Petroleum

  4. Kerosene

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Compressed natural gas (CNG) (methane stored at high pressure) can be used in place of gasoline (petrol), Diesel fuel and propane/LPG. CNG is made by compressing natural gas (which is mainly composed of methane), to less than 1 percent of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure.

Which of the following can be considered as an ideal fuel?

  1. Kerosene

  2. Petrol

  3. Biogas

  4. Wood

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Biogas can be considered as an ideal gas because it has an appropriate calorific value, easily processed from cow dung and other waste materials. It is environment friendly and burns smoothly without any residues. It contains negligible non-volatile materials.

What is calorific value?

  1. Amount of heat energy produced on complete combustion of 1 Kg of fuel.

  2. Amount of heat energy produced on complete combustion of 100 Kg of fuel.

  3. Amount of heat energy produced on complete combustion of 1 g of fuel.

  4. Amount of heat energy lost on complete combustion of 1 Kg of fuel.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Calorific value is the quantity of heat produced by the complete combustion of a given mass of a fuel, usually expressed in joules per kilogram.

It can be defined as the amount of heat energy produced on complete combustion of 1 Kg of fuel. 


Hence, the correct option is $A$.

_______ is a fuel made by compressing natural gas.

  1. LPG

  2. CNG

  3. Both a and b

  4. None of above

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Compressed natural gas (CNG) (methane stored at high pressure) can be used in place of gasoline (petrol), Diesel fuel and propane/LPG. CNG is made by compressing natural gas (which is mainly composed of methane, CH4), to less than 1 percent of the volume it occupies at standard atmospheric pressure.

Multiple choice evs how to save fuel fuels fuel and effects of burning fuel study of combustion

Greater the _____ value, better is the fuel.

  1. gold

  2. iodine

  3. calorific

  4. decane

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Calorific value means the energy contained in a fuel or food, determined by measuring the heat produced by complete combustion of specific quantity, expressed as $J/kg$. 

Greater the calorific value, better is the fuel.

Heats of combustion of $CH _4, C _2H _4, C _2H _6 $ are -890, -1411 and -1560 KJ/mole respectively. Which has the lowest fuel value in KJ/g?

  1. $CH _4$
  2. $C _2H _4$
  3. $C _2H _6$
  4. All same

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
Fuel value $CH _4=\cfrac{890}{16}$ KJ/g=555.625 KJ/g

Fuel value $C _2H _4=\cfrac{1411}{28}$ KJ/g=50.4 KJ/g

Fuel value $C _2H _6=\cfrac{1560}{30}$ KJ/g=52KJ/mole

$\therefore $ Hence lowest fuel value for $C _2H _4$
Multiple choice evs water: a precious resource importance of water let's play with water water and its properties water resources and conservation

Treated water is:

  1. distilled water

  2. potable water

  3. rain water

  4. river water

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,B Correct answer
Explanation
Treated water is the one that has improved quality of water to make it more acceptable for a specific end-use. The end use may be drinking, industrial water supply, irrigation, river flow maintenance, water recreation or many other uses, including being safely returned to the environment.
Distilled water is obtained after condensation of steam.
Potable water is the fittest form of water, suitable for consumption after treatment.
Rain water and river water contains dissolved gases, minerals and particulates from the environment. They are natural form of water.
Therefore option A and B are correct.
