Before slow cooking a meat (for example, in a crockpot/slow-cooker) you will often find instructions to sear the meat on high heat in an oiled skillet for a few minutes before transferring it to the crockpot. The searing is brief – not long enough to cook the meat thoroughly. Despite myth/legend, the searing will not “seal in the juices”. What is the searing for?
The citizens of the world burn the fossil fuel equivalent of 7 * 1012 kg of petroleum per year. Assume that all of this petroleum is in the form of octane (C8H18) and calculate how much CO2 (in kg) the world produces from fossil fuel combustion per year. (Hint: Begin by writing a balanced equation for the combustion of octane.) If the atmosphere currently contains approximately3 * 1015 kg of CO2, how long will it take for the world’s fossil fuel combustion to double the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide?
Explain the difference in the efficiencies of the fuels you tested based on the chemical structures of the fuels.
