Explanation:
When the reaction takes place,2 grams of carbon dioxide will be made but vaporized into air.
To determine the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the compound, we assume a basis of the compound of 100 g. We do as follows:
Mass Moles
K 52.10 52.10/39.10 = 1.33 1.33/1.32 ≈ 1
C 15.8 15.8/12 = 1.32 1.32/1.32 ≈ 1
O 32.1 32.1 / 16 = 2.01 2.01/1.32 ≈ 1.5
The empirical formula would most likely be KCO.
The molecular formula would be K2C2O3.
Answer:
About 19.64 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of gasoline. On the other hand, 22.38 pounds of carbon dioxide are produced from burning a gallon of diesel. So, different fossil fuels will give different amounts of carbon dioxide to be released.
