Is it better to use ethanol based petrol or the higher priced petrol in regards to what is best for the environment?

Normal petrol is better for the environment. The end product that comes out of your car is worse, but it takes roughly one and a quarter gallons of gas to make a gallon of ethanol. So from production to end result normal gasoline is better.

Why is water a better conductor than ethanol?
water contains iron and ethanol doesnt. this is why Water has ions, ( not iron), in a higher concentration than ethanol.
What makes a better processor high gHz or low gHz?
In regards to computer processors the higher the number of gigahertz the faster it is.
Why ethanol has higher boiling point than diethyl ether?
Ethanol has hydrogen bond where as ether does not.
What has a higher efficiency biodiesel or ethanol?
Biodiesel
Why is water a better fluid for use in a hot pack than ethyl alcohol?
Water has a higher boiling point than ethanol, and so will evaporate more slowly at high temperatures than ethanol. Also, I think water has a higher heat capacity, which means it will stay hot longer.
Ethanol c2h5oh and methyl ether ch3och3 have the same molar mass.W hich has a higher boiling point?
ethanol has a higher boiling point- of 78°C :)
Why do high temperatures have a higher absorbance than ethanol?
Ethanol is known to have a lower absorbance, in comparison to high temperatures, and this is base on ethanol chemical structure.
Which has higher boiling point oxygen or ethanol?
Oxygen.
Why ethanol is the best solvent for recrystallization of urea?
because ethanol dissolve urea at slightly higher temperature and not dissolve the impurities
Why ethanol has high boiling point than diethyl-ether?
Ethanol has intermolecular hydrogen bonding where as diethylether does not have this kind of bonding. So BP of ethanol is higher than diethylether.
Why 70 ethanol is used as disinfectant?
a) 70% ethanol has been found to b most effective in killing microbes.Higher or lower concentrations may not b as effective. b) if u use 90% or absolute ethanol, it will evaporate fast and may not be much effective. c) using higher concentrations will leave its traces on the applied surfaces d) higher concentrations of ethanol are harmful to skin and makes it dry pretty a) 70% ethanol is most effective.higher or lower ones r not as effective b) it evaporates at a slow rate than 90% or absolute ethanol. therefore it is more effective and saves ur ethanol too.. c) higher concentrations alwez leave traces applied surfaces thus addind an unwanted reagent d) 70% ethanol is comparatively less harmful to ur hands.. higher concentrations makes ur skin dry..
Why ethanol has a higher boiling point than diethyl ether?
Ethanol has an -OH group which can involve in hydrogen bonding and diethyl ether molecules haven't such groups.
