Burning one gallon of gasoline releases 20 pounds of CO2 into the air. Harry’s compact car can travel 25 miles on one gallon of

gas. If Harry drives 15,000 miles in a year, his vehicle will add pounds of CO2 to the atmosphere.

There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's, the answer can be easily deduced.
Amount of gasoline required by Harry's car to travel 25 miles = 1 gallon
Then
amount of gasoline required
by Harry's car to travel 15000 miles = 15000/25
                                                         = 600 gallons
So 
Amount of CO2 released by burning 1 gallon of gasoline = 20 pounds
Then
Amount of CO2 released
by burning 600 gallon of gasoline = 600 * 20
                                                      = 12000 pounds
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the amount of CO2 that will be added by Harry's car to the atmosphere is 12000 pounds.

Which term best describes this reaction? 2 carbons double bonded to each other, with CH 3 above the left C and H above the right
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

addition polymerization

Explanation:

In addition polymerization, the monomers are simply joined to each other to form a polymer having the same empirical formula as the monomer but of higher relative molecular mass. The monomers in addition polymerization are usually simple unsaturated molecules such as alkenes.

We can deduce the reaction to be an addition polymerization because of the the attachment of n to both the unsaturated monomer and the saturated polymer without the loss of any small molecule. If it was a condensation polymerization, there would have been an accompanying loss of a small molecule such as water.
