A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas city (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11800 lb. of Jet A fuel. Jet A fuel is kerosene based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the  Carbon:Hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight , how much CO2 (in kg) was released into the atmosphere? (assume the combustion of fuel was complete, so all fuel was converted into H2O and CO2).
6. If 1.85 L of diphosphorous pentoxide form at a temperature of 50.0 °C and 1.12 atm, what is the mass (in g) of phosphorus that reacts?
The molar heat capacity of a diatomic molecule is 29.1 J/K · mol. Assuming the atmosphere contains only nitrogen gas and there is no heat loss, calculate the total heat intake (in kJ) if the atmosphere warms up by 3.0°C during the next 50 years. Given that there are 2.8 x 10²20 moles of diatomic molecule present, how many kilograms of ice (at the North and South Poles) will this quantity of heat melt at 0° C? (The molar heat of fusion of ice is 6.01 kJ/mol.) Total heat intake: × 10 kJ Ice melted: × 10 |kg (Enter your answer in scientific notation.)
