Be sure to answer all parts. One gallon of gasoline in an automobiles engine produces on average 9.50 kg of carbon dioxide, whic

h is a greenhouse gas; that is, it promotes the warming of Earth's atmosphere. Calculate the annual production of carbon dioxide in kilograms if there are exactly 40.0 million cars in the United States and each car covers a distance of 7930 mi at a consumption rate of 23.6 miles per gallon. Enter your answer in scientific notation.

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

one gallon of gasoline produces 9.50 kg of carbon.

The total number of cars = 40 million

Distance covered by each car = 7930 miles

Consumption rate of the cars per miles traveled is 23.6 miles per gallon.

Hence the annual gasoline consumption by all the cars in the United States of America = (total number of cars × Distance covered by each car) ÷ Consumption rate of the cars per miles

annual gasoline consumption by all the cars = (40000000 × 7930 miles) ÷ 23.6 miles/gallon = `1.344067797 × 10¹⁰ gallons

1.344067797 × 10¹⁰ gallons = 1.344067797*10^{10}\  gallons *\frac{9.50\ kg}{1\ gallon} =1.276864407*10^{11}\ kg\ of \ carbon\ dioxide

What else is produced during the combustion of butane, C4H10?<br><br> 2C4H10 + 13O2 → <br> + 10H2O
Neko [114]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

8CO₂

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • Butane, C₄H₁₀
  • Butane is a hydrocarbon in the homologous series known as alkane.

We are required to determine the other product produced in the combustion of butane apart from water.

  • We know that the complete combustion of alkane yields carbon dioxide and water.
  • Therefore, combustion of butane will yield carbon dioxide and water.
  • The balanced equation for the complete combustion of butane will be;

       2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ →  8CO₂ + 10H₂O
