Assuming that gasoline is 100% isooctane and that the density of isooctane is 0.792 g/mL, what mass of CO2 (in kilograms) is produced each year by the annual U.S. gasoline consumption of 4.6 X 1010 L?
Combining one atom of carbon with two atoms of oxygen produces one molecule of carbon dioxide, along with 6.5 x 10-19 J of energy. In 2019, the United States burned enough coal to supply 1.1 x 1019 J of energy. Assuming that coal is roughly 100% carbon, how many molecules of carbon dioxide did the U.S. produce by burning coal in 2019? Less than 1036 molecules of carbon dioxide. Between 1036 and 1038 molecules of carbon dioxide. Between 1038 and 1040 molecules of carbon dioxide. More than 1040 molecules of carbon dioxide.

Electrical energy is usually measured in kiloWatt-hours, kWh. A Watt is 1 joule per second. A kiloWatt is 1000 joules per second. An hour has 3600 seconds. Therefore 1 kWh = 3.6x106 joules. How many kWh are there in a meal that is 776 Cal, or nutritional calories? Just put in the number. The assumption is the unit is kWh. 1 Nutritional Cal = 1 kcal (exact) 1 cal = 4.184 joules (exact) kilo 103 (exact) 1 kWh = 3.6x106 joules (exact) =
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas that is mainly responsible for global warming (the greenhouse effect). The burning of fossil fuels is a major cause of the increased concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is also the end product of metabolism. Using glucose as an example of food, calculate the annual human production of CO2 in grams, assuming that each person consumes 5.0 × 10^2 grams of glucose per day. The world's population is 7.2 billion, and there are 365 days in a year.
A coal-burning power plant generates 9.53 × 1016 J per year. If the coal yields 39.0 kJ/g, how many grams of coal was burned each year?
Carbohydrates serve as a vital source of chemical energy to the human body. Carbohydrates are broken down into smaller units of glucose, among other sugars, providing energy to various muscles and organs, including the brain. On average, for every 11.0 g11.0 g of carbohydrates consumed, the body will store 187 kJ187 kJ of energy. Convert this energy value to kilocalories (kcal). 187187 kJ = kcal
