Assume that all of this petroleum is in the form of octane (C8H18) and calculate how much CO2 (in kg) the world produces from fossil fuel combustion per year. (Hint: Begin by writing a balanced equation for the combustion of octane.) If the atmosphere currently contains approximately3 * 1015 kg of CO2, how long will it take for the world’s fossil fuel combustion to double the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide?arrow_forwardConsider an internal combustion engine like that used in automobiles. The most common fuel used here is gasoline which is a mixture of hydrocarbons, and an octane rating is given for standardization. Therefore, we will approximate gasoline as being composed of the hydrocarbon, octane, C8H18. Another fuel that is common in racing applications is nitromethane, CH3NO2, used in top fuel dragsters. Let’s consider the combustion of each fuel with oxygen in an internal combustion engine. Let the 8-cylinder engine displacement be 500 in3 total. GOAL: Determine and compare the maximum enthalpy of reaction, ∆Ho rxn, for the combustion of both octane and nitromethane in a single cylinder of the engine. This means determine the maximum amount of fuel that can burn in the cylinder filled with 1 atm of air and the amount of heat that reaction would generate. Here are some suggested steps to guide you along. You will have to look up some data in your book or on the internet. 1. Write a balanced…arrow_forward
