Is the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide has been linked to the burning of fossil fuels. The combustion of octane produces 1.554*10^7 kJ of energy per tonne off carbon dioxide produced.
SNL has been proposed as a more environmentally sound source of energy. The heat of combustion of ethanol is 1367 kJ mol^-1. The energy produced per tonne of carbon dioxide from the combustion of ethanol is ?
The answer is 1.553 * 10^7 kJ
can someone please understand how this was determined ?
