Definition
| Reaction of H-C and halogen |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| complicated free radical substitution need high temp(flame) to initiate reaction |
|

Term
|
Definition
| combustion of H-C produces large volumes of gases & large amounts of heat. Rapid formation of gases @ high T & P drives pistons/turbine blades |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| gas burns too rapidly, piston receives single hard slam, knocking/pinging sound, reduced efficiency |
