How does octane effect the environment?

Answer 1

Gasoline is burned in cars and power plants. while burning, the gas gives off carbon dioxide, which is weakening the atmosphere. Our atmosphere keeps some of the sun's warmth frow reaching Earth to balance the temp. If too much CO2 is released, the atmosphere will shrink, which is why the temp has risen so much these days. another thing is its non-renwable so we can't use it forever. Scientists are trying to find ways to make hydrogen cell cars but thus far, it cost A LOT of money. Concluded by: ME!;P

Answer 2

Burning any fossil fuel like octane releases long-hidden carbon dioxide which has been out of circulation for millions of years. Carbon dioxide levels are increasing in the atmosphere. This is responsible for global warming and climate change.

Answer 3

Octane can impact the environment when burned in engines, as it contributes to air pollution by releasing harmful emissions such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds. These emissions can lead to smog, acid rain, and respiratory issues. Choosing higher octane fuels than required for a vehicle can also result in increased carbon dioxide emissions, contributing to climate change.

Answer 4

The same way most alkanes effect the environment. By complete combustion they release lots of carbon dioxide.

Answer 5

because it gives off poisonous gases?
