Does a propane pilot light produce as much carbon dioxide per hour as a human being dose per hour?

.02 gallons. A pilot uses roughly 15 gallons of propane per month. Take 15 gallons, divide it into 30 days = 0.5 gallons a day. Divide that answer by 24 = .020833 gallons per hour.

What two gases are more dense than carbon dioxide?
There are many gases more intrinsically dense than carbon dioxide, the most common being the gaseous element chlorine, the compound sulfur dioxide, and water vapor. Many gaseous organic chemicals such as butane and propane are more dense than carbon dioxide.
What do fossil fuels form when burned in air?
Being hydrocarbons, they produce water and carbon dioxide when burnt in air.
How many molecules of carbon dioxide are released from one pyruvic acid molecule being oxidized?
In glycolysis, a 6 carbon sugar (glucose) is oxidized to produce 2 three carbon intermediates (pyruvate).
What is the process that has recently disrupted the balance in the carbon cycle?
Human emitted carbon dioxide, without a doubt. The reason being that humans only emit carbon dioxide, we do not capture and store it again as the natural carbon cycle does. This means that even when us humans only produce 3% of total carbon dioxide emissions (while nature emits the remaining 97%), we can still disturb the balance of the total amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
What is Carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by?
Many things contribute to Carbon dioxide being released. Cars, animals, burning fossil fuels, etc.
What two gases are more dense than carbon dioxide?

Why is Carbon produced when something is burnt?
Technically, carbon is not produced when something is burned. Carbon dioxide is produced. And only if the substance being burned contains carbon compounds. Burning separates the carbon from the other elements in the compound and combines it with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide.
Is carbon dioxide found in homes related to utilities?
As well as being produced by cars, certain industrial processes, burning wood and so on, carbon dioxide is what human beings produce when they exhale (breathe out). So yes, carbon dioxide is in EVERY home.
What does the reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate look like?
It will produce calcium chloride, water and carbon dioxide gas. You will observe bubbles of carbon dioxide gas being produced.
What do fossil fuels form when burned in air?
Being hydrocarbons, they produce water and carbon dioxide when burnt in air.
Carbon dioxide is building up in your atmosphere for two reasons The first is that many of your activities produce carbon dioxide The second reason is that some of your activities limit the amount of?
The amount of carbon dioxide being removed from the atmosphere. (These activities are cutting down and destroying forests.)
What is being reduced that can absorb carbon dioxide?
As more forest is being reduced that can absorb carbon dioxide.
Is carbon dioxide a waste product of photosynthesis?
An example is carbon dioxide being emitted from car exhausts. Hope that helped.
Why is more carbon dioxide being produced?
More carbon dioxide is being produced primarily due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These activities release large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
Why is it not accurate to call the electricity produced by burning hydrogen in power stations carbon free electricity?
It is not accurate to call the electricity being produce 'carbon free' because for the transaction to work parts of carbon dioxide are being pumped into the system.
Which reactant of photosynthesis is reduced?
In photosynthesis, the carbon dioxide molecules are being reduced, while the water molecules are being oxidized In photosynthesis, the carbon dioxide molecules are being reduced, while the water molecules are being oxidized
Why is carbon dioxide considered a waste product?
Carbon Dioxide can leave your body by respiration (Breathing).
