its is fuel efficient and pollution free
Bad example. We get a lot of powdered water where I live in the winter...SteamKing said:For the same reason you can't have powdered water.
Yeah, but you don't have to add water to reconstitute it from the powder.russ_watters said:Bad example. We get a lot of powdered water where I live in the winter...
Oxygen is essential for combustion, but it cannot be used as a fuel on its own. This is because oxygen is already present in the air we breathe and it needs to be combined with a fuel source in order to produce energy.
Unfortunately, oxygen is not a source of energy like gasoline or diesel. It is an oxidizer that helps to ignite and sustain the combustion of a fuel source. Therefore, it cannot be used as a replacement for traditional fuels in cars.
Oxygen is considered a catalyst for combustion because it speeds up the reaction between a fuel source and heat, resulting in the release of energy. However, it is not consumed in the process and is constantly recycled in the air.
While oxygen cannot be used as a sole fuel source, there are alternative fuels that use it as a main component, such as hydrogen fuel cells. These cells combine hydrogen with oxygen from the air to produce electricity, which can power a car.
Scientists are constantly researching and developing new ways to harness oxygen as a fuel source. However, due to its highly reactive nature and the need for a fuel source to produce energy, it is unlikely that oxygen will become a primary fuel for cars in the near future.
