Presence of which fuel gas in the exhaust fumes shows incomplete combustion of fuel.
(a) Sulphur dioxide
(b) Carbon monoxide and water vapour
(c) Carbon monoxide
(d) Nitrogen dioxide
The Correct Option is...
✔ (c) Carbon monoxide
Explanation ⦂
The presence of carbon monoxide gas in the exhaust combustion indicates incomplete combustion of the fuel. Carbon monoxide gas is formed when carbon reacts with oxygen in a limited supply of air, but there is incomplete combustion. In this situation, carbon monoxide gas is produced. This is a poisonous gas.
Carbon monoxide is a colourless gas. Its weight is lighter than air. It is a poisonous gas which in its high concentration state can be toxic to humans and other animals. Small amounts of this gas are extremely useful for some common biological functions.
Carbon monoxide is made up of a triple bond between one carbon atom and one oxygen atom. Its chemical formula is CO.
It is a poisonous gas that causes suffocation when it enters the body of the animal in large quantities, which can lead to the death of the animal.
