Question

4.1 kg of a plastic, used to make plastic bottles, has a carbon footprint of 6.0 kg of carbon dioxide.

Answer 1

Answer:

The carbon footprint of one plastic bottle of mass 23.5 g is 34.390 g.

Explanation:

The carbon footprint of one plastic bottle can be estimated by simple rule of three. That is:

$x = \frac{23.5\,g}{4100\,g}\times 6000\,g$

$x = 34.390\,g$

The carbon footprint of one plastic bottle of mass 23.5 g is 34.390 g.
