Octane is heated in a heat exchanger under constant pressure of 10 bar from 200 K to 400 K. Use the SRK equation to calculate the heat added to the system. Report your answer in units of kJ/mol using three decimal places. The ideal gas heat capacity of octane may be assumed constant and CPig/R=23.174. Under these conditions octane is a liquid.
In a cylinder of an automobile engine, immediately after combustion the gas is confined to a volume of 53.0 cm³ and has an initial pressure of 3.60 × 106 Pa.

A gasoline engine uses 0.01 kg/s of fuel while delivering 55 kW of power. The heating value of the fuel is 35,000 kJ/kg and the fuel density is 900 kg/m^3. In the question that follows, select the answer that is closest to the true value. What is the thermal efficiency of the engine?
In the United States, energy for household heating is generally sold using English units, e.g., therm, gal, and cord. A house in Wisconsin uses 1200 therms of thermal energy during the heating season. Calculate the cost of fuel if the furnace uses (a) natural gas with an efficiency of 70%; (b) No. 2 fuel oil, efficiency 65%; (c) kerosene, efficiency 99.9% (unvented); and (d) wood with l5% moisture with an efficiency of 50%. Use the data in Tables 2.2, 2.7, and 2.13. The efficiencies are based on the HHV. Assume the cost of natural gas is $8/MBtu, the cost of No. 2 fuel oil is $3/gal, the cost of kerosene is $3.50/gal, and the cost of wood is $100/cord. Assume the bulk density of cord wood is 30 lbm/ft3 .

A city has a fleet of 10 gasoline cars and 5 gasoline light trucks built in 2009. The annual vehicle miles (VMT) traveled by these vehicles are 8,000 miles. How many kg of CO2e does the fleet produces in a year? Which fleet of vehicles (i.e. light truck or gasoline car) produces more CO2e and by how much? Notes: Fuel efficiency of gasoline car = 23.8 mpg Fuel efficiency of light truck = 17.4 mpg Emission factor of N2O from gasoline car = 0.020 gm/mile Emission factor of CH4 from gasoline car = 0.021 gm/mile Emission factor of N2O from light truck= 0.029 gm/mile Emission factor of CH4 from light truck = 0.025 gm/mile Emission factor of gasoline = 8.78 kg CO2/gallon
