Combustion of hydrocarbons such as decane produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere can trap the sun's heat, raising the average temperature of the earth. for this reason there has been a great deal of international discussion about whether to regulate the production of carbon dioxide. write the chemical balance equation.

What are the primary responsibilities of a chemical engineer involved in "r& d"? develop large scale manufacturing operations discover new products and processes training of new chemists determine products needed by consumers

One similarity and one difference between an element and a mixture of elements

How is electrolysis most commonly used to produce an energy source? a - splitting water molecules produces oxygen, which organisms breathe to fuel their bodies. b - splitting water molecules produces hydrogen gas, which is used to power machines through hydrogen fuel cells. c - splitting carbon dioxide molecules produces coal, a form of carbon that can be burned to produce heat. d - splitting carbon dioxide molecules produces natural gas, which can be burned to generate electricity in power plants.
