Today - no.

But they are working on it. If they can find a way to efficiently separate the hydrogen from the oxygen you can run a vehicle on the hydrogen.

What engine is an example of an internal combustion engine?

The four-stroke engine used in automobiles is an example of an internal combustion engine.


Is the internal combustion engine's fuel burns outside the engine in chambers called cylinders?

Internal combustion refers to an engine were the combustion process takes place inside the engine. The cylinders in question are an internal portion of the cylinder block which houses the crankshaft, connecting rods and the pistons which move up and down in the cylinder drawing in the air fuel mixture, are forced down by the combustion process, and push the spend fuel charge out of the cylinder at the end of the cycle. An example of an external combustion engine would be a steam engine where the combustion takes place in a boiler external to the engine and the steam generated by the boiler is used to motivate the engine.


What is the difference between internal combustion engine and heat engine?

An internal combustion engine is a type of heat engine that generates mechanical energy by burning fuel inside the engine. A heat engine, on the other hand, is a broader category of engines that convert heat energy into mechanical work through various processes, including combustion, thermodynamic cycles, and heat transfer. In essence, all internal combustion engines are heat engines, but not all heat engines are internal combustion engines.


In what part of an internal combustion engine is the gasoline mixed with air?

The gasoline is mixed with air in the intake manifold of the engine. The intake manifold acts as a passage for the air to flow into the engine cylinders, where it mixes with the fuel before combustion.


What liquid and gas can create a mixture?

Fuel and air can create a mixture in an internal combustion engine, where the fuel (liquid) is mixed with air (gas) before being ignited to power the engine.

Is a boiler an internal combustion engine?

No, a boiler is not an internal combustion engine. A boiler is a closed vessel that uses heat to generate steam or hot water for heating or power. Internal combustion engines, on the other hand, are machines that generate power by burning fuel within a combustion chamber.


Why does cars use gas?

what is a heater an internal combustion engine or a external combustion engine?

A heater can be either an internal combustion engine or an external combustion engine, depending on its design and operation. Internal combustion engines generate heat through the combustion of fuel within the engine itself, while external combustion engines produce heat by burning fuel outside the engine to heat a working fluid. Common examples of heaters include furnaces (external combustion) and car engines (internal combustion). The specific classification depends on how and where the combustion occurs in relation to the heat-producing mechanism.


How can you change cars fuel to H2O?

You can't. No internal combustion engine will run on water except a steam engine, and even that requires another fuel to produce the steam.
