A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas city (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11800 lb. of Jet A fuel. Jet A fuel is kerosene based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the Carbon:Hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight , how much CO2 (in kg) was released into the atmosphere? (assume the combustion of fuel was complete, so all fuel was converted into H2O and CO2).

Ammonium carbamate will decompose into ammonia and carbon dioxide gasas. A 780.7 g sample of ammonium carbamate was allowed to decompose at a certain elevated temperature on a 10.0 L sealed container. A 25.0 mL sample of the headspace gas (i.e. the gas above the solid) was removed, and 0.0545 g ammonia could be isolated from that sample. NH4(NH2CO2)(s) = 2NH3(g) + CO2(g). (a) what cncenteration of ammonia, in mol/L was present in the headspace gas? (b) How many moles of ammonium carbamate had evaporated? Assume that the container volume is in addition to the volume of the solid (0.57 L) and that you may neglect the change in the volume occupied by the solid due to decomposition. (c) Calculate Kc for the decomposition of ammonium carbamate under these conditions.
