_____________ prohibits the use of alcohols directly in petrol engines ?

Correct answer: B. High cost & availability

  • A. Low octane number
  • B. High cost & availability
  • C. Low flash point
  • D. Low calorific value

Explanation

Alcohol fuels have useful antiknock properties, but their direct use is limited mainly by relatively high cost and inadequate availability for large-scale supply. Their lower calorific value is a disadvantage, but it is not the principal restriction stated here.
