Approximately 20 pounds of CO2 are emitted per gallon of gasoline burned.
Approximately 19.6 pounds of CO2 are emitted per gallon of gasoline.
Each gallon of Diesel Fuel makes 22.2 pounds of CO2
Around 3 pounds of CO2 are emitted by open air burning of one pound of tire.
The answer is "8.8 kgs or 19.4 pounds of CO2 emissions by burning a gallon of gasoline". The answer and its detailed calculation can be found at http://www.epa.gov/otaq/climate/420f05001.htm. You can also find the amount of carbon dioxide emitted by burning one gallon of diesel on this same web page.
No Co2 is emitted by horses themselves.----------------------------------------------------------------------Apart from when they breathe of course.
Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere. The amount of CO2 emitted depends on the type of fossil fuel and how it is burned, but on average, burning one gallon of gasoline produces around 20 pounds of CO2. This is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
CO2 emissions are calculated in terms of pounds per gallon of fuel. The standard measure for cars is 19.62 pounds per gallon of gas. Each car will have a different result based on mileage per gallon, to calculate for your car just divide 19.62 by mpg.
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.
when you breathe out,the gas that is emitted is
No, carbon dioxide is not emitted by an incandescent lamp.
A Hummer parked in a garage emits almost zero CO2 over the course of a year. The Hummer H2 gets around 10 to 12 mpg. Assuming the typical owner drives 15,000 miles per year, that is around 1300 gallons of gas. Each gallon of gas burned results in 14 pounds of CO2. Multiplying these last two figures we get 9.5 tons of CO2 emitted per year, per Hummer, on average.
