Nascar and chemical reactions : 

Nascar and chemical reactions Dannielle Meheux

Chemcal reactions : 

Chemcal reactions Combustion Acid base Decomposition Single displacement Double displacement

What is combustion reaction : 

What is combustion reaction Chemical change that is the oxidation with the production of heat and light These reactions are endothermic and require constant energy from the combustion reactions

The fire triangle : 

The fire triangle The fire triangle or combustion triangle is a simple model for understanding the ingredients necessary for most fires

Activation energy : 

Activation energy Minimum energy required to start a chemical reaction

Why is the fire triangle important : 

Why is the fire triangle important The combination of heat, oxygen, and fuel is very dangerous and can cause a fire immediately

How is the cook top of your stove a real life example of fire triangle : 

How is the cook top of your stove a real life example of fire triangle The cook top of the stove uses fuel and heat and also oxygen to be used

What is a combustion engine : 

What is a combustion engine The internal combustion engine or “ICE” s an engine in which the combustion of a fuel uses an oxidizer in a combustion chamber

How does it work : 

How does it work In an ICE the expansion of high temperatures and pressure gases which are produced by the combustion directly applies force to a moveable component of the engine and by moving it it generates useful mechanical energy

NASCAR engines and car engines : 

NASCAR engines and car engines The displacement is 358 inches not many cars have this engine but they have more than 300 horsepower The intake and exhaust are tuned and tested to give a boost at certain engine speeds. They are also designed to have very low restriction

Nitrous oxide : 

Nitrous oxide Is known as nitro and it increases the horsepower It is very dangerous and very flammable and uses a lot of gasoline when used in a car
