LPG content can mostly considered as propane.

Propane = C3H8 so the molecular mass is =3x12+1x8 = 44

Atomic weight Carbon = 12kg/kmol Hydrogen = 1 kg/kmol

Each mole of Propane contain 3 mole of Carbon.

Amount of carbon emitted per kg of LPG is

(1kgPropane /44kg/kmol)x 3 molCarbon/molPropane x 12 kg/kmolCarbon

=36/44 = 0.818 kg carbon release
