How much benzene is in a gallon of gasoline?

On average, a gallon of gasoline contains around 0.6-2% benzene by volume, which is roughly 0.05-0.15 gallons or 0.2-0.6 liters of benzene per gallon of gasoline. Benzene is a naturally occurring component of crude oil and is present in small amounts in gasoline.


What measurements is soil sold in?

How does the styrofoam melt when added gasoline?

It may look like polystyrene "melts" when petrol (gasoline) is poured on it. However, the petrol is actually dissolving the polystyrene. In chemistry, there is a common saying that "like dissolves like". Polystyrene is an alkene and petrol has several alkenes in it {benzene (up to 5% by volume), toluene (up to 35% by volume), naphthalene (up to 1% by volume), trimethylbenzene (up to 7% by volume)} which aid in the dissolving of the polystyrene.


A tank is loaded with 9000 barrel of gasoline The temperature of the product is 27 degrees Celsius and it has the coefficient of expansion of 0008 The net amount of cargo loaded is?

To find the net amount of cargo loaded, you need to consider the expansion of the gasoline due to the change in temperature. Since the coefficient of expansion is 0.0008 per degree Celsius, you can calculate the increase in volume of the gasoline when it heats up from 27 degrees Celsius to its final temperature. You can then subtract this increase in volume from the initial volume to find the net amount of cargo loaded.

Gasoline has greater mass than water because gasoline is less dense than water, meaning the same volume of gasoline weighs more than the same volume of water.


What is the volume of 1 gallon of cold gasoline 60 degrees F compared to warm gasoline 80 degrees F?

The volume of gasoline increases with temperature. When gasoline is warmer at 80 degrees F compared to 60 degrees F, it will expand and occupy a larger volume than the same amount of gasoline at the lower temperature.


What is the freezing point of gasoline?

Unleaded gasoline, and gasoline in general, does not have a specific freezing point. It is largely dependent on the location where the gasoline is sold, as methods of producing gasoline vary.


How do you calculate weight of gasoline in tank?

To calculate the weight of gasoline in a tank, you would need to know the volume of gasoline in the tank and its density. Multiply the volume by the density to get the weight. The density of gasoline can vary depending on factors such as temperature and composition.
