Q.
If a rocket runs on a fuel (C15H30) and liquid oxygen, the weight of oxygen required and CO2 released for every litre of fuel respectively are: (Given: density of the fuel is 0.756g/mL )
C15H30+245O2→15CO2+15H2O
Mass of fuel =0.756×1000g
No. of moles of fuel =2100.756×1000
Wt. of oxygen =2100.756×1000×245×32=2592g
Wt of CO2=2100.756×1000×15×44=2376g
