Best Answer: In an acid-base titration the idea is to carry out a neutralization reaction between an acid solution and a base solution in order to determine the ...
Detonation (not to be confused with pre-ignition) is a spontaneous combustion of the end-gas (remaning air-fuel mixture) within the combustion chamber AFTER the spark/ignition. Combustion of the air-fuel mixture is supposed to be a smooth, controlled burn originating at the spark plug and spreading throughout the chamber, (relatively) steadily increasing pressure and tempurature to drive the piston down.
Detonation may occur due to an increase in the temperature of the fuel-air mixture in aircraft piston engines. Increased internal temperature may occur for a variety of reasons, including an overheated engine, or the use of expired fuel. Pre-Ignition in Aircraft Piston Engines
