- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 2.4 kilograms of CO2 are released when 1 liter of gasoline is burned (20 pounds of CO2 are released when 1gallon is burned). Use this information to determine the number of metric tons of CO2 emitted annually by (a) the car described in Question 1 with a low fuel efficiency, (b) a fleet of 250 million vehicles with this same fuel efficiency, (c) the car described in Question 2 with a high fuel efficiency, and (d) a fleet of 250 million vehicles with this same high fuel efficiency. These calculations provide a rough estimate ofthe CO2 footprints for individual cars and for the entire U.S. fleet with low and high efficiency cars. (Note: 1 kilogram= 2.20 pounds; 1 metric ton = 1,000 kilo grams = 2,200 pounds = 1.1 tons; 1 ton [H11005] 2,000 pounds).arrow_forwardAnabolic steroids are performance enhancement drugs whose use hasbeen banned from most major sporting activities.

- A generous appraisal of the mass of fish in Loch Ness is 15,675 kg. Based on Travis’s estimates of the size of Nessie, how many monsters might the lake contain? (Travis estimates: Based on the photos and sonar records published back in 1975, she’s around 15 meters long, about the length of a gray whale, and would weigh approximately 8 tons, although another report suggested she may only be half that long with a mass of only 1.5 tons) - Use the 10% rule in ecology to solve the questionarrow_forwardSodium chloride, the table salt (NaCl) is added in cooking to enhance the flavor of the food.  When 10.0 g of NaCl are added in 200.0 mL of water at 25.0oC in a coffee-cup calorimeter, 669 J of heat are absorbed.  (Assume that there is no change in volume, d=1.00 g/mL, specific heat=4.18 J/g.oC).
