There is no recognized substance called "minoxide." It may be a misspelling or a made-up term. Please provide more context or clarify the intended word for a more accurate response.

An automobile gas tank holds 25kg of gasoline If during combustion of the gas 125 kg of oxygen is also consumed and 70g of carbon dioxide is produced what mass of water must be produced?

If the products are entirely water and carbon dioxide, the answer will be 80 kg (25 + 125 = 70 + 80). You are not told anything else so you have to assume this. There will in practice be some compounds of sulfur and nitrogen, and some carbon monoxide probably, but these are quite small in amount.


What are the effects of treated wastewater?

Unfortunately, you did not specify the effects on WHAT? The environment? Human health? Irrigation? Anyhow, wastewater is often treated with disinfectants (e.g. chlorine) in order to kill any stressed or otherwise living bio-contaminants such as pathogenic e. coli and cysts. The by-product of disinfection can be Tetrahalomethanes, or THM's which are carcinogenic. They form when organic matter reacts with the disinfectant. As far as the environment, wastewater can cause eutrophication in waterbodies, which can lead to algal blooms and low dissolved oxygen content. On the positive sie, those excessive nutrients can also support a larger biotic community, though undesirable to people. Wastewater is often used to irrigate places like parks, golf-courses, and agriculture, which saves ground water resources. As far as consumption, it is not advisable to consume wastewater, since cysts and other biocontaminants CAN and DO survive the disinfection process. They can hide within "biofilms" that sometimes go unpenetrated by disinfectants. Ozone is an effective disinfectant that leaves no harmful byproduct in the water, but it is seldom used because it is more expensive.
