Chemistry · Secondary 4 · Hard · Acid rain
A car engine burns 1 kg of fuel X and 1 kg of fuel Y. The masses of pollutants in the exhaust are shown.
- Fuel X: 200 g carbon monoxide, 20 g oxides of nitrogen, 2 g sulfur dioxide
- Fuel Y: 20 g carbon monoxide, 40 g oxides of nitrogen, 5 g sulfur dioxide
Which statement can be inferred from the data?
- Fuel X: 200 g carbon monoxide, 20 g oxides of nitrogen, 2 g sulfur dioxide
- Fuel Y: 20 g carbon monoxide, 40 g oxides of nitrogen, 5 g sulfur dioxide
Which statement can be inferred from the data?
- Burning fuel X contributes more to acid rain than burning fuel Y.
- Burning fuel Y contributes more to acid rain than burning fuel X.
- Fuel X must contain a higher percentage of sulfur than fuel Y.
- The temperature in engines using fuel X is higher than in engines using fuel Y.
