Is oil a greenhouse gas?
dah!! of course they do. you drive cars dont you? use petrol to make electricity and even run this computer!
Do cars release CO2 or Carbon monoxide or both?
No. Carbon dioxide is the product of combustion and cannot be burned. If you compress carbon dioxide you could run an engine in the same manner as compressed air (like the Tata Motors Limited vehicles) and be used as power source. This has not been done with carbon dioxide.)
Do cars emit sulfur dioxide?
Yes they do.
What gases are produced when fuel is burned in cars?
If ideal complete combustion occurs, fossil fuels release carbon dioxide gas and water vapor as the main products. Complete combustion occurs when sufficient oxygen exists for all of the hydrocarbon material to be completely oxidized in the oxidation-reduction combustion reaction. If insufficient oxygen is present, carbon monoxide will also be formed which is a toxic colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. Carbon may also be formed.Most of the time the combustion products are carbon dioxide with a small fraction of carbon monoxide. Most states in the United States place a limit on the amount of carbon monoxide a vehicle is allowed to produce, which is usually quite small.Other pollutants produced from the combustion of fossil fuels include sulfur dioxide (SO2), sulfur trioxide(SO3), nitric oxide (NO), and nitrous dioxide (NO2). The sulfur impurities are caused by combustion of the impurity hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans, or other sulfur compounds in the original fossil fuel. The nitrogen oxides are caused by combustion of nitrogen molecules in the fuel as well as the contact of the high temperature nitrogen in the air surrounding the engine. (Air is approximately 80% nitrogen). These pollutants are responsible for a host of environmental problems including smog and acid rain.
Carbon dioxide is produced by A Respiration B Volcanic Eruptions C Burning Fossil Fuels D All of the Above?
D ; All of them. NB When we breath out )Exhale/Respire) we breath outy carbon dioxide. B ; Volcanoes releaser carbon dioxide, together with other gases e,g, steam, sulphur dioxide, hydrogen sulphide , amongst other gases and liquid rocks. C ; We burn fossil fuels(petrol/gas/diesel) in cars and power stations. They also release CO2.
What are the different opinions on acid rain?
there are no different viewpoints on acid rain unfortunately, it is aggreed that it is caused by sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides of the pollutants and exhaust of cars
Do cars pollute the air or people?
Both. Cars emit Hydrocarbons + Nitrogen Oxides + Carbon Dioxide + Carbon Monoxide. People emit Methane and Carbon Dioxide.
What things do you do which may effect the physical environment and cause acid rain?
Acid rain is caused by a reaction with chemicals when gases like sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. They mix with water and other chemicals to form acidic pollutants, known as acid rain. They can mix easily with water and can be carried by the wind. Human activities are the main cause of acid rain. Over the past few decades, humans have released so many dangerous chemicals into the air that they have changed the atmosphere. Power plants release the most sulphur dioxide and much of the nitrogen oxides when they burn fuels. In addition, the exhaust from cars, trucks, and buses releases nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide into the air. These pollutants cause acid rain. Username: Dragonzzz
Which pollutant can lead to acid rain?
Power stations, factories and cars all burn fuels and they all produce gases. Some of these gases (especially nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide) react with the tiny droplets of water in clouds to form sulphuric and nitric acids.The rain from these clouds then falls as very weak acid - known as "acid rain".
What do cars let out when they drive the car?
Hydrocarbons, Nitrogen Oxides, Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide and water!
Why are cars harmful to the to earth?
They are harmful because of the exhaust going into the air.The cars produce Car Exhaust, one of the biggest sources of pollution by humans. Car exhaust contains soot particles, hydrocarbons, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide these make harmful effects to Humans, Animals and the Environment.
Do cars or houses produce more carbon dioxide?
Cars produce much more than houses.
Is oil a greenhouse gas?
dah!! of course they do. you drive cars dont you? use petrol to make electricity and even run this computer!
What do smoke in cars produce?
Carbon Dioxide ( CO2)
What is the harmful gas that comes out of driving cars?
Cars produce many many harmful gases.These include Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Sulphur Dioxide and Nitrogen Oxide.Carbon Dioxide is a major contributor to Global Warming, and slightly to Acid Rain.Nitrogen Oxide contributes, not only to Global Warming, but also to Acid Rain.Whereas, Sulphur Dioxide contributes to Acid Rain.Carbon Monoxide, is a harmful gas, but does not contribute to Global Warming or Acid Rain. However, it can kill us humans, it is known as 'the silent killer'.
Why do electric cars produce sulfur dioxide?
Electric Cars produce sulfur dioxide from their batteries. The manufacturing process of Nickel Metal Hydride (ex. Toyota Prius) and Lithium Ion (ex. Hyundai Sonanta Hybrid) batteries creates a lot of sulfur emissions. A conventional internal combustion engine vehicle actually emits less sulfur oxides to the atmosphere than electric and hybrid vehicles.
How can sulphur be removed from cars?
Elemental Sulphur is not to be found in Cars, you question makes no sense.
