1. Translate the following text into Ukrainian in written form
The carburetor. Gasoline in its raw liquid form will not burn satisfactory to operate an internal-combustion engine. It must first be broken up into small drops, or atomized. After being atomized, the gasoline is vaporized and mixed with air in proper proportions for combustion. While these proportions vary slightly for different makes of engines, one part of gasoline to fifteen parts of air by mass is the average mixture used. The carburetor, therefore, is a device which automatically vaporizes and mixes the gasoline and air in the proper proportions necessary for starting, idling, acceleration, and power at various speeds.
Карбюратор. Бензин в сирому вигляді рідкого не горітиме задовільним для роботи двигуна внутрішнього згоряння. У першу чергу необхідно розбити на дрібні краплі, або розпорошується. Після того, як розпорошений, бензин випаровується і змішується з повітрям у відповідних пропорціях для горіння. У той час як ці пропорції незначно відрізнятися для різних марок двигунів, однієї частини бензину до п'ятнадцяти частин повітря за масою середня суміш використовується. Карбюратор, отже, являє собою пристрій, який автоматично випаровується і змішує бензин і повітря в правильних пропорціях, необхідних для запуску, холостий хід, прискорення, і влада на різних швидкостях.
