Well, it depends on the water content of the wood. But assuming the wood contains about 10% water (within the normal range of air-dried wood), a ton of wood, if burned, would produce approximately 1.5 tons Carbon Dioxide, or about 0.4 ton "carbon equivalent", which just means the weight of the carbon that is contained in the carbon dioxide.

Burning 1 kg of LPG produces approximately 2.98 kg of CO2.


How much CO2 will be produced by combustion of 2231 kg of coal?

The amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) produced from burning coal varies depending on the type of coal and the combustion efficiency. On average, burning one ton (1000 kg) of coal produces around 2.86 tons of CO2. Therefore, for 2231 kg of coal, the approximate CO2 emissions would be around 6.38 tons.


Where does most of the co2 produced from burning fossil fuels end uo?

Most of the CO2 produced from burning fossil fuels ends up in the Earth's atmosphere. This CO2 contributes to the greenhouse effect, trapping heat and leading to global warming and climate change.


How many grams of CO2 will be produced by burning 22 gram of C3H8?

To calculate the grams of CO2 produced by burning 22 grams of C3H8, first determine the moles of C3H8 using its molar mass, then use the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of C3H8 to find the moles of CO2 produced, and finally convert moles of CO2 to grams using the molar mass of CO2.

Determine the mass of CO2 produced by burning enough carbon (in the form of charcoal) to produce 510 kJ of heat. C(s) O2(g)CO2(g)ΔHrxn393.5k?

The heat produced by burning 1 mol of carbon to form CO2 is 393.5 kJ. To produce 510 kJ of heat, we utilize the ratio of heat produced to calculate the moles of CO2 produced as (510 kJ / 393.5 kJ) mol CO2. The molar mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mol, so the mass of CO2 produced is (510/393.5) * 44.01 g.

How many grams of CO2 will be produced by burning 34.3 gram of C3H8?

To calculate the amount of CO2 produced when burning 34.3 grams of C3H8 (propane), you need to balance the chemical equation for the combustion of C3H8. Since each mole of C3H8 produces 3 moles of CO2, you first convert 34.3 grams of C3H8 to moles, calculate the moles of CO2 produced, and then convert that to grams of CO2.
