Assuming timber is pure cellulose = (C6H10O5)N it will burn in air giving
C6H10O5 + 6O2 -----> 6CO2 +5H2O so 6 moles of Carbon dioxide per mole of wood.
The molecular weight of cellulose monomer is 162 so in 1kg there are 1000/162 moles.
Therefore 1000/162 x 6 x22.4 = 830 liters of Carbon Dioxide. Or alternatively
1000/162 x 6 x 44 = 1630g of Carbon Dioxide. Numbers rounded up to zero decimal places.

How does an automobile using 11.5 barrels of oil create 5 tons of carbon dioxide?
To obtain the number of grams of CO2 emitted per gallon of gasoline combusted, the heat content of the fuel per gallon is multiplied by the kg CO2 per heat content of the fuel. The average heat content per gallon of gasoline is 0.125 mmbtu/gallon and the average emissions per heat content of gasoline is 71.35 kg CO2/mmbtu.
How much coal is used to generate electricity for a house per day?
About 0.3 kg of hydrocarbon fuel is burned to produce 1 kWh of energy. About 1 kg of CO2 is produced by the power plant (the extra mass comes from oxygen absorbed from the air). An average house might use 20 kWh per day which corresponds to 6 kg (12 lb) of coal and 20 kg of CO2.
How much CO2 emissions does a normal aeroplane release?
On average, a commercial airplane emits about 53 pounds of CO2 per mile. The exact amount of CO2 emissions can vary depending on factors such as the type of aircraft, distance traveled, and load factors.
How much CO2 would 10 people produce in 1 day?
To calculate the amount of CO2 produced by 10 people in one day, we need to consider the average daily CO2 emissions per person. On average, one person produces around 20 pounds (9 kilograms) of CO2 per day. Therefore, 10 people would produce approximately 200 pounds (90 kilograms) of CO2 in one day. This calculation is based on the typical activities of individuals, such as transportation, energy consumption, and waste generation, which contribute to CO2 emissions.
How much carbon is released into the atmosphere when 1 liter of diesel is burnt?
I'm seeing notes indicating that 1 gallon of Diesel contains 2.778 KG of carbon, and when burnt it will release approximately 22.384 pounds of CO2 per gallon.Let me convert to metric:3.785 liters per US Gallon.2.2 lbs / kg.So, 1 gallon releases 10.17 kg of CO2.1 liter of diesel releases about 0.73 kilos of Carbon, and 2.68 kilos of total CO2
How much CO2 is produced from 1 kg of lpg?
Burning 1 kg of LPG produces approximately 2.98 kg of CO2.
How much co2 is released by 1 kg petrol?
Burning 1 kg of petrol produces around 2.3 kg of CO2.
How much carbon dioxide does a car produce per kilometer?
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 carbon dioxide emissions come from cars?
60% of crude oil imported into the US is burned as fuel (cars, trucks, power plants). One barrel of crude oil makes about 317 kg of CO2. The US consumes about 9,286,000 barrels/day (of gasoline, assuming it produces the same CO2 per barrel...). One average person produces about 0.90 kg of CO2 per day. The US alone produces the CO2 of 2.9 trillion people. China has the US beat on the production of CO2 also.
What is the weight of 1 kg CO2?
The weight of 1 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2) is approximately 1.87 kg when considering the atomic weights of carbon and oxygen in the molecule.
How much CO2 does a laptop produces?
350 kg

How much co2 is formed from the burning of 1.8 kg of octane?
The formula for normal octane is C8H10. Each mole burned creates 8 moles of CO2. A mole of octane is 106 grams, 8 moles of CO2 is 8x44 = 352 grams So 1.8 kg of octane would produce 1.8x(352/106) = 5.98 g CO2. As the octane value is given to 1 decimal place the answer can be no more accurate so 6.0 kg.
How to convert kg over liters per second to kg over liters per hour?
1 (kg / liters) per second = 3600 (kg / liters) per hour. So, multiply kg/l per second by 3,600 to get kg/l per hour.
