1 liter of diesel typically weighs 0.83kg (the density range is 820-845kg/m3 in Europe and up to 860kg/m3 elsewhere). About 87% of this is carbon, so one liter of diesel contains 0.83 x 87% = 0.722kg of carbon, each atom of carbon weighs 12 atomic units. When it combines with two atoms of oxygen in the combustion process it becomes CO2 , which weighs 44 atomic units.
The 0.722kg of carbon in the original fuel then becomes 0.722 x 44/12 = 2.65kg of CO2, so one liter of diesel fuel produces about 2.65kg of CO2
