Calculate the number of pounds of CO, released into the atmosphere when a 13.0 gallon tank of gasoline is burned in an automobile engine. Assume that gasoline is primarily octane, C,H,3, and that the density of gasoline is 0.692 g mL-. This assumption ignores additives. Also, assume complete combustion. 18 CO, released: lb

Dd.101.
While ethanol (CH,CH,OH) is produced naturally by fermentation, e.g. in beer- and wine-making, industrially it is synthesized by reacting ethylene (CH,CH,) with water vapor at elevated temperatures. A chemical engineer studying this reaction fills a 125 L tank with 33. mol of ethylene gas and 13. mol of water vapor. When the mixture has come to equilibrium she determines that it contains 24.6 mol of ethylene gas and 4.6 mol of water vapor. The engineer then adds another 17. mol of ethylene, and allows the mixture to come to equilibrium again. Calculate the moles of ethanol after equilibrium is reached the second time. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. dlo mol

The human body burns glucose (C6H₁2O6) for energy according to this chemical reaction: C6H12O6 +60₂-6CO₂ + 6H₂O The products of the reaction are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O). Interestingly, all of the carbon dioxide and much of the water exits the body through the lungs: on every breath, the average person exhales 500. mL of air, which is typically enriched to 4% CO₂ and 5% water vapor by volume. In short, when a person loses weight by dieting, the weight that is lost actually departs his body as a gas, every time he exhales. Each kilogram of body fat lost requires exhaling about 2.9 kg of carbon dioxide. Calculate how many breaths it takes an average person to "exhale" 1.00 kg of fat. Round your answer to the nearest thousand. You'll need to know that the density of CO₂ is 2.0 kg/m³. 0 ☐ ☐x10 X
