ONLY ANSWER B AND C PLEASE

Gasoline (C3H18) is a common fuel used to provide energy for transportation. A common sedan car fuel tank size is 60 L. a) (1 mark) Write balanced equations for the complete combustion for gasoline, stating your assumptions b) (3 marks) Calculate the amount of CO2 emitted when you drive and consuming the full tank of fuel. c) (3 marks) For the same amount of energy used in part b) If you are using a Hydrogen fueled car, how much Hydrogen (in mass (kg) and Volume (L)) would you be using? Compare this with the mass and volume of gasoline fueled car and hence the advantage and disadvantage of using Hydrogen fueled car. HHV gasoline 48.254 MJ/kg, molecular weight 114 g/mol, gasoline density 750 kg/m3, molecular weight of CO2 is 44 g/mol. HHV H2 120 MJ/kg, H2 density of 0.08239 g/L Conversion 1 m3 = 1000 L
