How much CO2 is produced from burning coal?

Taking coal to contain 50 percent carbon, which combines with oxygen during burning to form CO2, we can arrive at 1.83 kg CO2 for every 1 kg of coal burned. Another way to put it, taking the efficiency of power stations into account, is that 950 grams of CO2 is evolved for every KWh of electricity produced. Note that for natural gas it is more like 600 g per KWh for natural gas powered plants.


Are electric cars good for the environment?

yes as they do not give out carbon dioxide (co2) witch is contributing to the ice caps meltingYour answer is incomplete and barely right.Electric autos do not produce CO2 BUT to charge the battery CO2 is produced at the power generating plant!Every KwH used by an electric car generated on average about 600g of CO2.600g of CO2 is a worldwide average of CO2 emissions/ KwH.


How much energy is produced from windmills?

The produce about 2,300 KWH(kilowatt hour) a year.


How much coal is used to generate electricity for a house per day?

About 0.3 kg of hydrocarbon fuel is burned to produce 1 kWh of energy. About 1 kg of CO2 is produced by the power plant (the extra mass comes from oxygen absorbed from the air). An average house might use 20 kWh per day which corresponds to 6 kg (12 lb) of coal and 20 kg of CO2.


1 kWh equals pounds of CO2?

zero lbs


How is Co2 reduction accomplished by your solar panels comparable to other types of saving energy?

Solar panels save CO if you accept that electricity generation normally produces CO2 when the fuel is burnt. 1 kWh of electric energy results in about 1 kg of CO2 from a conventional power plant, so if that 1 kWh were generated by solar, that saves 1 kg of CO2. 1 kWh generated by a wind turbine also saves 1 kg of CO2. In this equation you also have to consider any CO2 emitted at the factories that make the solar panels etc., but this is not very much.


How much electrical energy was produced by nuclear power plants?

How many kWh of energy are produced by coal?

a lot!!!!!!!!


How much waste is produced by coal power plants per kWh?

There is around 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide waste produced by coal power plants. This is released by a natural gas.


How much is kWh x 100000000?

The answer to this question is zero. There is no kWh given.


What is the cost of KWH at 0.1029?

The cost of a kWh is 0.1029 or 10 and a third cents for every hour that you use.


How many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every methane molecule burned?

The result will be 1 m3 of CO2 and 2 m3 of H2O gas (and 2 m3 of O2 will be consumed).This is determined by the stoichiometry of the balanced reaction:CH4 + 2O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O
