Burning 1 kg of petrol produces around 2.3 kg of CO2.
Burning 1 kg of LPG produces approximately 2.98 kg of CO2.
The amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced from burning coal varies depending on the type of coal and the combustion efficiency. On average, burning one ton (1000 kg) of coal produces around 2.86 tons of CO2. Therefore, for 2231 kg of coal, the approximate CO2 emissions would be around 6.38 tons.
Burning one liter of furnace oil produces approximately 2.6 kg of CO2 emissions.
The weight of 1 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2) is approximately 1.87 kg when considering the atomic weights of carbon and oxygen in the molecule.
Reaction of octane combustion- 2C8H18+25O2= 16CO2+ 18H2O That mean from 228g octane (16*22.4dm3) = 358.4dm3 of CO2 is produced. {because volume of each mole is 22.4dm3} Now, from 10 kg of octane produced volume of CO2 is = (358.4*10000)/228 =(15719.298 dm3/1000)m3 =15.719 m3.
Burning 1 kg of LPG produces approximately 2.98 kg of CO2.
The density of petrol varies, depending on its composition. 20 thousand litres would weigh between 14200 kg and 15400 kg.
350 kg
Typically 2.31 kg.
This depends upon the vehicle. A Hummer H2 averages 4.25 to 5.1 km per liter. An all electric vehicle powered by solar charged batteries emits virtually no CO2 at all. In the US cars only recently topped 10 km/liter. Since a liter of fuel emits 1.68 kg of CO2, a tenth of that is 0.17 kg of CO2 per kilometer. 0.17 kg/km translates to 0.6 lbs per mile, for those following along in the US.

Octane is one of the alkane group of hydrocarbons and is a major component of petrol (gasoline). Burning octane gives this chemical reaction: 2.C8H18 + 25.O2 = 16.CO2 + 18.H2O The formula shows that 1 kg of octane burns with 3.51 kg oxygen to produce 3.09 kg carbon dioxide and 1.42 kg water.
In the garage, none. On the road, 3.2 kg of CO2 for each kilogram of fuel used - just like all other vehicles. Carbon gets into the car via the fuel tank, and comes out (combined with oxygen) through the exhaust. Petrol (gasoline) contains 80-90% carbon, the rest is hydrogen with traces of other elements. In the engine the carbon combines with oxygen that enters from the atmosphere via the air filter. Oxygen is much heavier than hydrogen which explains how 1 kg of fuel can generate 3.2 kg of CO2.
An average car produces about 7700 kg of co2 a year.
The amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced from burning coal varies depending on the type of coal and the combustion efficiency. On average, burning one ton (1000 kg) of coal produces around 2.86 tons of CO2. Therefore, for 2231 kg of coal, the approximate CO2 emissions would be around 6.38 tons.
specific gravity is density relative to water. (water = 1 kg / litre) specific gravity of petrol is 0.72 ( 0.72 kg / litre) 33 000 litres petrol * 0.72 = 23 760 kg
