Answer:

 i would assume that it would be (a)

Explanation:

The Sun generates its energy by nuclear fusion

NUCLEAR FISSION is when the heavy atom is split

fusion energy is scientifically feasible. Plasma conditions that are very close to those required in a fusion reactor are now routinely reached in experiments

mass gets lost is nuclear fusion

so (a) is the most accurate

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: The law of conservation of mass is reffering to the fact that energy cannot be created or destroyed. So when you speak about atoms not being created or destroyed it is the same thing. Unless you're talking about an atomic bomb where the atoms are split.

A civil engineering student is considering buying an electric car. However, the conscious student wants to make sure her carbon
svetlana [45]

Answer:

\text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\\boxed{\text{five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}

Explanation:

1. Miles travelled in an average month  

\text{Miles} = \text{1 mo} \times \dfrac{\text{52 wk}}{\text{12 mo}} \times \dfrac{\text{5 da}}{\text{1 wk}} \times \dfrac{\text{16 mi}}{\text{1 da}} = \text{347 mi}

2. Using a gasoline powered vehicle  

(a) Moles of heptane used  

n = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{36.5 mi}}\times \dfrac{\text{3.785 L}}{\text{1 gal}} \times \dfrac{\text{679.5 g}}{\text{1L}} \times \dfrac{ \text{1 mol}}{\text{100.20 g}}= \text{244 mol}

(b) Equation for combustion  

C₇H₁₆ + O₂ ⟶ 7CO₂ + 8H₂O  

(c) Moles of CO₂ formed  

n = \text{244 mol heptane} \times \dfrac{\text{7 mol CO$_{2}$}}{\text{1 mol heptane}} = \text{1710 mol CO$_{2}$}

(d) Volume of CO₂ formed  

At 20 °C and 1 atm, the molar volume of a gas is 24.0 L.  

V = \text{1710 mol } \times \dfrac{\text{24.0 L}}{\text{1 mol}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.785 L}} = \textbf{10 800 gal}

3. Using an electric vehicle  

(a) Theoretical energy used  

\text{Theor. Energy} = \text{347 mi} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kWh}}{\text{5.2 mi}} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.}

(b) Actual energy used  

The power station is only 85 % efficient.  

\text{Actual energy used} = \text{66.7 kWh theor.} \times \dfrac{\text{100 kWh actual}}{\text{ 85 kWh theor.}}\times \dfrac{\text{3600 kJ}}{\text{1 kWh}}\\\\ = 2.82\times 10^{5} \text{ kJ}\

(c) Combustion of CH₄

CH₄ + 2O₂ ⟶ CO₂ +2 H₂O

(d) Equivalent volume of CO₂

The heat of combustion of methane is -802.3 kJ·mol⁻¹  

V= 2.82\times 10^{5}\text{ kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol methane}}{\text{802.3 kJ}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CO$_{2}$} }{\text{1 mol methane}} \times \dfrac{ \text{24.0 L}}{ \text{1 mol CO$_{2}$}}\\\\ \times \dfrac{\text{1 gal}}{\text{3.875 L}} = \textbf{2180 gal}

4. Comparison  

\dfrac{V_{\text{gasoline}}}{V_{\text{electric}}} = \dfrac{10800}{2180} = 5.0\\\\ \text{An gasoline-powered vehicle has }\\ \boxed{\textbf{ five times the carbon footprint}}\text{ of an electric vehicle.}
