Problem page combustion of hydrocarbons such as pentane ( c5 h12 ) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere can trap the sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the earth. for this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide.(a) write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the combustion of liquid pentane into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. (b) suppose 0.350 kg of pentane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 20.0 degree c. calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced.be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Read the chemical equation. 2c2h2 + 5o2 → 4co2 + 2h2o which of the following statements would be correct if one mole of c2h2 was used in this reaction? one mole of oxygen was used in this reaction. five moles of oxygen were used in this reaction. four moles of carbon dioxide were produced from this reaction. two moles of carbon dioxide were produced from this reaction.

While in europe, if you drive 125 km per day, how much money would you spend on gas in one week if gas costs 1.10 euros per liter and your car’s gas mileage is 32.0 mi/gal? assume that 1 euro=1.26 dollars
