We shall convert all of the densities to lbs/gal, so the product of
BTU/lbs and lbs/gal gives us the basis of comparison, which was "ratio of energy to volume".
grams / ml x 1 lbs/454 grams → 1 lbs/ 454 ml
1 lbs/454 ml x 3785.41 ml/gal → 3785.41 lbs/454gal
Conversion of g/ml = 8.34 lbs/gal
Looking at each fuel:
Kerosene:
18,500 x (8.34 x 0.82) = 126,517 BTU/gal
Gasoline:
20,900 x (8.34 x 0.737) = 128,463 BTU/gal
Ethanol:
11,500 x (8.34 x 0.789) = 75,673 BTU/gal
Hydrogen:
61,000 x (8.34 x 0.071) = 36,120 BTU/gal
The best fuel in terms of energy to volume ratio is Gasoline.
Gallons required:
BTU needed / BTU per gallon
= 85.2 x 10⁹ / 128,463
= 6.6 x 10⁵ gallons
Answer:
Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.
Explanation:
A gradient of concentration is the difference between in concentration of one place / area substance to different area. Having a molecule flow down its concentration gradient means moving the molecules from hypotonic areas to the concentration hypertonic areas
Diffusing the gradient ensures that most of the molecules in high concentration zone will wind up in the previously low concentration by the spontaneous movement of small molecules.
