Thanks. I know that it's an exothermic reaction. However, the blow-by gases rapidly cool down as they pass the rings and brush the cylinder wall and the crankcase. So they cool down to about 100°C (if the cylinder heads of the engine are liquid-cooled and the liquid typically has about 90°C)...

Hi, 1st and general case: 2 H2 and 1 O2 take up 1 liter of volume at, for example, 20°C, before combustion. After combustion and cooling down to 20°C, how much volume do the exhaust gases take up? Since the stoichiometric relationsship is 2 mols of H2 for every mole of O2, so those three moles...
