Question:
The combustion of fuel in your car engine requires oxygen gas, which is supplied as air (21% oxygen molecules) into the engine. Consider a car that is using 100% ethanol, C2H5OH, as fuel. If your engine intakes 2.28 L of air per minute at 1.00 atm and 25ºC, what is the maximum volume of ethanol (0.789 g/mL) that can be burned per minute?
Hint: You can ignore the "per minute" information because both the ethanol and air are being quantified per minute.
Enter your answer to three significant figures in units of mL.
