The U.S. proven natural gas reserves in 2013 were 323 trillion ft3 .
How long will these reserves last if there are no imports or exports and if the U.S. annual rate of use of 24.5 trillion ft3 continues?
A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas city (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11800 lb. of Jet A fuel. Jet A fuel is kerosene based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the Carbon:Hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight ,
how much CO2 (in kg) was released into the atmosphere? (assume the combustion of fuel was complete, so all fuel was converted into H2O and CO2).
How many kg of CO2 are emitted from an automobile that completely combusts all the gasoline in its
16.5 gallon fuel tank? You may assume that gasoline is entirely octane, which has the following
combustion equation:
2 C3H18 (1) + 25 O2 (g) → 16 CO2 (g) + 18 H2O (g)
Useful information:
1 gallon = 3.7854 L.
• This combustion occurs in excess O2.
The density of octane is p = 703 g/L.
• The molar mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mol.
• The molar mass of octane is 114.23 g/mol.

- How does hydraulic fracturing differ from previously used techniques for the recovery of natural gas from the earth?arrow_forward62 Ammonium dinitramide (ADN), NH4N(NO2)2, was considered as a possible replacement for aluminium chloride as the oxidizer in the solid fuel booster rockets used to launch the space shuttle. When detonated by a spark, AND rapidly decomposes to produce a gaseous mixture of N2,O2, and H2O. (This is not a combustion reaction. The ADN is the only reactant.) The reaction releases a lot of heat, so the gases are initially formed at high temperature and pressure. The thrust of the rocket results mainly from the expansion of this gas mixture. Suppose a 2.3-kg sample of ADN is denoted and decomposes completely to give N2,O2, and H2O. If the resulting gas mixture expands until it reaches a temperature of 100°C and a pressure of 1.00 atm, what volume will it occupy? Is your answer consistent with the proposed use of ADN as a rocket fuel?arrow_forwardName a favorable effect of the global increase of CO2 in the atmosphere.arrow_forward

Explain.arrow_forwardSome indoor air-purification systems work by converting a little of the oxygen in the air to ozone, which oxidizes mold and mildew spores and other biological air pollutants. The chemical equation for the ozone generation reaction is: It is claimed that one such system generates 4.00 g O3 per hour from dry air passing through the purifier at a flow of 5.00 L/min. If one liter of indoor air contains 0.280 g of O2, what mole fraction of O2 is converted to O3 by the air purifier? What is the percent yield of the ozone generation reaction?arrow_forward
