  1. Question 1

    Q1. A fuel sample is prepared by mixing 70% iso-octane and 30% n-heptane by volume. What is the octane number assigned to this specific fuel blend?

    • A) 100
    • B) 0
    • C) 30
    • D) 70

    Answer: 70

    Explanation: Octane number equals the percentage of iso-octane. 30 is wrong because it represents the n-heptane percentage, not the rating.
