The mass of the CO2 produced IS 630 Kg

<h3>What is gasoline?</h3>

Gasoline is a kind of fuel that is composed mostly of isooctane. In most engines, gasoline is widely used hence the demand for the product is high. We know that the combustion of an alkane (of which gasoline is one) would produce carbon dioxide and water according to a balanced reaction equation.

The balanced reaction equation for the combustion of gasoline is shown in the image attached to this answer.

Since  a Puerto Rico hospital uses 3 gallons of gasoline per hour, and there are 24 hours in a day, it the follows that 72 gallons of gasoline are used per day. This 72 gallons is the equivalent of 272.88 L

Now;

Given that the density of gasoline = 748.9 g/L

Mass of gasoline = 748.9 g/L * 272.88 L = 204 Kg

Number of moles of gasoline =  204 * 10^3/114 g/mol = 1789.5 moles

If 2 moles of gasoline produces 16 moles of CO2

1789.5 moles produces  1789.5 moles * 16 moles/2 moles = 14316 moles

Mass of CO2 =  14316 moles * 44 g/mol = 630 Kg

When James family went on the road to the carnival they were stuck in traffic. After a 20 minutes they are were 30 more miles le
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

They would be 5.5 miles away because if you take 20 divided by 20 to get 1 minute you would have to take 30 divided by 20 to get 1.5 miles per 1 minute. Then you would have to take 1 times 35 to get 35 minutes and you would have to take 1.5 times 35 to get 52.5. Then lastly you would take 58 miles and subtract 52.5 to get 5.5 miles therefor your answer would be 5.5 miles.
