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.

How much money does it take to produce 9oz of carbon dioxide?

It costs very little to produce carbon dioxide as it is a byproduct of many industrial processes. The cost depends on the specific method used, but it is generally a small fraction of a cent to produce 9oz of carbon dioxide.


How much carbon can 22 grams of carbon dioxide make?

22 grams of carbon dioxide contains 12 grams of carbon. This amount of carbon can combine with 32 grams of oxygen to form 44 grams of carbon dioxide.


Does respiration decrease or increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Respiration (breathing) has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Breathing is part of the carbon cycle. We take in carbon in our food and drink and we release it again when we breathe. If we eat too much, the extra carbon is stored in our bodies, making us fatter, in much the same way as a tree stores carbon in its wood as it grows.So breathing does not increase or decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.


Which processes in the carbon cycle decreases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Photosynthesis is the main process in the carbon cycle that decreases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide from the air and convert it into carbohydrates and oxygen. This helps to store carbon and reduce the overall concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.


How much Co2 does running a TV produce?

A flat panel television does not produce any carbon dioxide during normal operation. The carbon footprint of operating an LCD TV is estimated at 215 kg per year on average.

Do cars produce a carbon footprint?

Yes. Your carbon footprint is the measure of how much carbon dioxide equivalent you, or any of your activities produce. A car burns petrol (gasoline) so its use has a carbon footprint.


How much carbon dioxide is produced by the ocean?

The oceans are regarded as carbon dioxide sinks, not sources. This means they remove carbon dioxide, not produce it. Carbon dioxide dissolves from the air into ocean water. Once there it is removed by plankton and algae, by corals and mollusks in making shells, and by chemical action.


Does plants also change oxygen into carbon dioxide?

Yes, but at night. It make oxygen more than it does carbon dioxide though. ---- Plants, like animals, do have metabolisms by which energy is generated through the oxidation of sugar, which produces carbon dioxide. However, green plants consume much more carbon dioxide, in the process of photosynthesis, than they produce by means of their metabolism, and they produce much more oxygen than they consume.


Do any plants produce as much carbon dioxide as humans?

No, it's the other way around. Plants intake Carbon dioxide and put out Oxygen. In the theory of how the world formed, this is how the atmosphere got to contain Oxygen, from plants spreading over the continents and producing Oxygen.


How much carbon dioxide will a gas stove produce?

The amount of carbon dioxide produced by a gas stove depends on the type of fuel used and the efficiency of the stove. Burning 1 cubic foot of natural gas typically produces about 12 pounds of carbon dioxide. However, newer stoves are more efficient and produce less carbon dioxide compared to older models.
