Which consequence results when incomplete fuel combustion occurs within an Otto cycle engine?

A)Increased carbon monoxide production
B)Elevated NOx formation efficiency
C)Enhanced engine thermal efficiency
D)Reduced unburned hydrocarbon emissions

💡 Explanation

Incomplete combustion causes increased carbon monoxide production because insufficient oxygen is present; therefore, carbon monoxide forms rather than carbon dioxide through oxidation as the dominant reaction involving the hydrocarbons that were only partially burnt.
