What two atoms are found in gasoline?
C8H18Octane. A hydrocarbon containing only atoms of carbon and hydrogen.
How many carbon atoms are in diesel?
It depends on the amount of gasoline and its composition; gasoline is not a compound with a fixed proportion between elements, but rather a mixture. If the questioner means the normal range of carbon atoms per molecule in gasoline, this is usually considered to be from 6 to 10.
Does gasoline produce smaller hydrocarbons?
Gasoline is composed of a mixture of hydrocarbons having 6 to 9 carbon atoms, some linear some cyclic. The laboratory standard "gasoline" used for quality comparison is 100% pure linear octane (i.e. 8 carbon atoms). When burned in an engine with a shortage of oxygen, it does produce smaller hydrocarbons called "unburned hydrocarbons" that contribute to smog.
What are the characteristics of gasoline?
Many types of gasoline exist; read this technical review.
A gallon of gasoline is 3.8liters a car takes about 20 gallon of gasoline how many liters is that?
20 US gallons of gasoline equals about 75.708 liters.
How many carbon atoms is present in petrol?
Petrol (gasoline) usually has an octane rating. It is a mixture. Since Octane is C8 a molecule of petrol (gasoline) contains approximately 8 carbon atoms.
What two atoms are found in gasoline?
C8H18Octane. A hydrocarbon containing only atoms of carbon and hydrogen.
Does gasoline have carbon?
Yes. Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons, which are organic compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What combine with carbon atoms and hydrogen in a gasoline?
Pure gasoline is a mixture of several hydrocarbons (just carbon and hydrogen) with ideally most of the hydrocarbons being octane (several types of hydrocarbon having eight carbon atoms). The gasoline sold as vehicle fuel has many additives (e.g. antiknock agents, detergents, lubricants, stabilizers, oxygenates, dyes) added to the gasoline mixture to make it work better in the engine.
Does diesel have a longer or shorter chain fraction?
Then what? Gasoline? Then the answer is no. Gasoline is C6H12. Diesel is C12H26. Same molecular construction. Just different number of atoms.
Why gasoline considered as chemical energy?
It is not. Gasoline is not energy. Rather, it HAS energy.If gasoline is burned or otherwise combines with oxygen, energy is released. This type of energy (related to how atoms are connected with one another) is called "chemical energy".
How many carbon atoms are in diesel?

Which reactant is easier to combust hydrogen or gasoline?
if it is hydrogen gas, that is easier,2 If it is in water with 2 oxigen atoms in is not.
Why is gasoline a mixture?
Gasoline is a mixture because contain many components.
How many many atoms and what kinds of atoms are in C6H8O6?
There are 20 atoms and there are 6 Carbon atoms, 8 Hydrogen atoms, 6 Oxygen atoms.
How many atoms are in magnesium?
how many atoms are there in magnesiumoxide 2 atoms are in magnesium 2 atoms are in magnesium
