How much energy is generated from 1 kg oil?

What objects float in oil?
Objects that are less dense than oil will float in oil. Examples include feathers, certain types of wood, and plastic objects like Styrofoam or plastic wrap. Metal objects and dense materials will sink in oil.
Bottles of oil to produce bottle of water?
Producing one bottle of water requires about one-fourth the amount of oil needed to produce a plastic bottle. The oil is used in the production of the plastic bottle itself as well as in the transportation and energy required for the manufacturing process. Recycling plastic bottles can help reduce the amount of oil needed for new bottle production.
Is plastic a renewable resource?
No, plastic is not a renewable resource. It is primarily derived from nonrenewable fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas through a chemical process. Once plastic is created and used, it cannot be easily recycled back into its original form.
What are the substances that float in water?
Substances that float in water typically have a lower density than water. Some examples include wood, oil, plastic, and cork. These substances are able to displace enough water to generate an upward buoyant force that keeps them afloat.

A plastic disks density is less than water but greater than oil if you put all three together in a glass container where would you see the plastic disk?
The plastic disk would float on top of the water but sink below the layer of oil in the glass container. This is because the density of the plastic disk is in between that of water and oil.
What natural resources are saved by recycling plastic?
The natural resources that are saved by recycling plastic would be oil and coal. This is because the oil is used to make the plastic and the coal is used by the factory.
How much oil is used to generate electricity in comparison to energy?
The reason why the percentage of oil used for electricity is low is because it has many other more pressing needs (transportation, plastic), while coal and natural gas don't have as many, so it is more logical to use these instead. The use of oil for energy is a much vaster concept because oil has many uses (transportation being the main one).
Does plastic sink or float in oil?
A plastic always sink in oil like a plastic bottle will always float in oil.

Will a two stroke engine generate more power if it runs with twice as much oil?
No but it might smoke more
Scientists disagree about whether paper bags or plastic bags are less harmful to the environment. Which fact supports the opinion that plastic bags are less harmful than paper bags?
Making a paper bag uses about twice as much oil as making a plastic bag.
What happens when you recycle plastic?
Recycled plastic is turned into plastic resin, which is then used to make mobile garbage bins, storm water pipes, crates and new soft drink bottles. New plastic is made from oil, and the world is running out of oil. If you fill a plastic soft drink bottle one third full of oil, that's how much oil it takes to make just one new bottle. Recycling is far more energy efficient.
