Combustion of hydrocarbons such as decane ( C 10 H 22 ) 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.
Suppose 0.270 kg of decane are burned in air at a pressure of exactly 1 atm and a temperature of 10 °C . Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide gas that is produced. Be sure your answer has 3 significant digits.
For many purposes we can treat methane (CH) as an ideal gas at temperatures above its boiling point of -161. °C.
Suppose the temperature of a sample of methane gas is raised from -21.0 °C to 23.0 °C, and at the same time the pressure is changed. If the initial pressure
was 0.28 kPa and the volume decreased by 60.0%, what is the final pressure? Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
