Question

What is the relationship between octane number and power number?

(a) \(Octane \,number = \frac{power \, number+100}{3}- 100\)

(b) \(Octane  \,number = \frac{power \, number-100}{3}* 100\)

(c) \(Octane  \,number = \frac{power \, number-100}{3}+ 100\)

(d) \(Octane  \,number = \frac{power \, number+100}{3}+ 100\)

The question was asked during an interview for a job.

This is a very interesting question from Natural Products in chapter Natural Products of Chemical Technology

Answer 1

The correct option is (c) \(Octane  \,number = \frac{power \, number-100}{3}+ 100\)

The explanation: \(Octane \, number = \frac{power \, number-100}{3}+ 100\) is the relationship between octane number and power number. Power extracted from the system is the basis for power number.
