How does the number of molecules present in the cylinder after combustion vary?
How does the number of molecules present in the cylinder after combustion vary?
- It depends only on the pressure and temperature
- It depends only on the fuel/air ratio
- It depends on the completeness of the reaction, but not on the composition of the fuel
- It depends on the fuel/air ratio, pressure, temperature, and completeness of the reaction (correct)
