- 4. Gasoline can be reasonably approximated as C9H20 with a density of 0.718 g/mL. Diesel can be reasonable approximated as C14H30 with a density of 0.763 g/mL. (Both gasoline and diesel are complicated mixtures. These formulas are something like weighted averages of the formulas of the different components, where the weighting is based on various quantifiable behaviors. That is, using these artificial formulas for gasoline and diesel allows one to calculate average properties that match what petroleum engineers might measure.) The enthalpy change from burning one mole of gasoline is -6160 kJ. The enthalpy change from burning one mole of diesel is -7940 kJ. Determine which fuel generates the biggest enthalpy change per gram burned, and which generates the biggest enthalpy change per mL burned.arrow_forwardThis section presents several ways our day-to-day lives have been enriched by chemistry.

- The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has been increasing over the past century as a result of the combustion of fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas). Carbon dioxide is a green- house gas that plays a significant role in climate. The increase in carbon dioxide is correlated with changes in climate that have climate scientists concerned. The graph shown here illustrates the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide from 1860 to the present. Study the graph and answer the questions that follow. 410 400 390 380 370+ 360+ 350 - 340 + 330+ 320+ 310+ 300 290 1860 1880 1900 1920 1940 1960 1980 2000 2020 Year A Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration from 1850 to present.

Which of the procedures would be the most effective way to separate the sugar from the tiny pieces of glass? Collect all of the sugar and glass pieces into a pot and heat the mixture to melt the sugar. Then, pour the liquid sugar through a filter to separate the glass from the sugar. Collect all of the sugar and glass pieces into a bucket of water. Allow the water to dissolve the sugar, then remove the water and sugar solution, leaving the glass behind in the bucket. The solution is then heated to evaporate the water, leaving the sugar behind. Use a magnifying glass and tweezers to safely remove the glass particles from the mixture. Sweep a magnet across the spill to attract the glass particles and remove them from the mixture.arrow_forward
