Question

Greater the calorific value, better is the fuel ( state True or False). Also write the false statements in their correct form.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Calorific Value:

• The energy contained in fuel or food, is known as its calorific value.
• It is measured by the amount of heat produced by burning $1\mathrm{Kg}$ of fuel known as the calorific value of the fuel.
• Higher the calorific value, the higher will be the available thermal energy produced by the complete combustion of fuel, hence better will be the fuel.

Hence, the greater the calorific value, the better the fuel, is a true statement.
