A 757 using 60-80 tons of fuel per day produces 200-300 tons of CO2. A typical car produces 3 tons per year of CO2, therefore one 757 produces the same as 20,000-30,000 cars.

What does lead oxide and carbon equal?

2PbO + C ------> 2Pb + CO2 so metallic lead and carbon dioxide.


What percentage of carbon dioxide is caused by car fumes?

AnswerYes, they do. When a hydrocarbon (e.g: gasoline) is burned, it releases water, carbon dioxide, and energy. For each litre of petrol used, the CO2 produced from the exhaust is about 2.5 kg. A typical annual use of 1200 litres of petrol produces about 3 tons of CO2.Cars produce almost 1% of all CO2. Nature, through rotting vegetation, produces 95%. However, vegetation absorbs an equal mass of CO2 out of the atmosphere while growing. Cars do not do that.Yes, cars do produce carbon Di-oxide.. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) originally viewed carbon dioxide as a product of "perfect" combustion, but now views CO2 as a pollution concern. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that traps the earth's heat and contributes to Climate Change.


What is released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels?

I believe there are more than one, but the burning of fossil fuels is generally associated with the release of carbon dioxide (or co2). This plays a significant role in global warming. Hope I helped and for more info please google "global warming", "fossil fuels", "carbon dioxide", or your original question. Best wishes!! :)


How many moles are in 66 grams of carbon dioxide?

The molar mass of carbon dioxide is 44.0095 grams per mole. This means that 0.66 grams of CO2 is equal to 15 millimoles.


How many particles are in one mole of nitrogen dioxide?

6.02x1023 particles are in one mole of nitrogen dioxide. One mole of anything, be it nitrogen dioxide of hydrogen monoxide (water), will always equal to 6.02x1023 (a very large number!) of particles. 6.02x1023 particles are in one mole of nitrogen dioxide. One mole of anything, be it nitrogen dioxide of hydrogen monoxide (water), will always equal to 6.02x1023 (a very large number!) of particles.

How does carbon dioxide and water moves in out of a cell?

The carbon dioxide will move in because if the amount of carbon dioxide fluid is greater outside the cell then the carbon dioxide will diffuse in so that the amount of carbon dioxide inside and outside of the cell will be an equillibrium

Why is the temperature of mars and Venus different but they contain equal amounts of carbon dioxide?

They don't have equal amounts of carbon dioxide. They have about the same the same relative abundances of carbon dioxide, both about 96%, but the atmosphere of Mars as a whole is several thousand times less dense than that of Venus, so the total amount of gas and thus the total amount of carbon dioxide on Mars is much less. This results in Mars having a much weaker greenhouse effect. Additionally, Mars is farther from the sun than Venus, so it receives less heat.


When methane burns carbon dioxide and water are formed The mass of carbon dioxide plus the mass of water equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of OXYGEN?

When methane burns, the carbon dioxide and water formed, equal the mass of the methane plus the mass of the oxygen.

Is biomass a green energy source?

Yes . . even though biomass fuel contains carbon, and burning it creates carbon dioxide, nevertheless it is green because the process that produced the biomass fuel took an equal amount of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere when the substances were being created, in the last few years at the most.
