Combustion of hydrocarbon such as heptane produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases in the earths atmosphere can trap the suns heat, raising the average temperature of the earth. For this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide.
 A. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid heptane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water.
B. Suppose 0.260kg of heptane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 18°C. Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide that is produced in liters. Round your answer to three significant digits.
