oxide is not. But nitrous oxide is!
No. Most nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere are a product of combustion of some fossil fuel in air, when the heat of combustion is sufficient to activate reactions between atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen, but the oxides are not present in the fuel itself.
Nitrogen oxide emissions can be controlled by modifying the combustion process in engines. This can be achieved by adjusting the air-to-fuel ratio, optimizing fuel injection timing, using exhaust gas recirculation, and implementing selective catalytic reduction systems. These modifications help to lower the temperature and reduce the availability of oxygen during combustion, which ultimately reduces nitrogen oxide formation.
No, nitrous oxide does not support combustion. In fact, it is used as an oxidizer in racing cars to increase the power output of the engine without increasing the amount of fuel used.
Copper (I) Oxide or Cuprous Oxide
CuO = Cupric Oxide Cupric = Cu2+ and is not Cu The correct answer would be CuO = Copper Monoxide Copper (II) oxide is the name of the compound CuO.
Nitrous oxide causes more of the fuel to burn, resulting in more power.
Gases such as oxide synthase.
It mainly uranium fuel. Sometimes, it is used MOX fuel (MOX is Mixed uranium plutonium Oxide fuel)
Some applications of nickel oxide (NiO) are: catalysts, ceramics, steels, batteries, fuel cells, etc.
No, because it does not fission like U-235 does. However it does transmute under neutron irradiation to plutonium, which if separated out can then be used in fuel, this is called MOX or mixed oxide fuel, and is part U-235, part Pu-239 in oxide form.
The uranium dioxide - UO2 - is a very important nuclear fuel.
Uranium, but it is actually in oxide form, UO2
Uranium enriched to about 5% U-235, in oxide form UO2
Sc2O3 is the chemical formula for scandium oxide, a compound composed of scandium and oxygen. It is a white powder with applications in the production of high-refractive-index glass and ceramics, as well as in the manufacture of solid oxide fuel cells.
Nitrous oxide itself does not burn, but it can support the combustion of substances like fuel. The flame produced when nitrous oxide assists in burning can appear blue due to the high heat generated during combustion.
No. Most nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere are a product of combustion of some fossil fuel in air, when the heat of combustion is sufficient to activate reactions between atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen, but the oxides are not present in the fuel itself.
The chemical formula for uranium oxide is UO2. This compound is commonly used as nuclear fuel in nuclear reactors due to its high melting point and stability.
