Answer:

The mass of CO2 produced by one liter of fuel is 2,200 gr/lt

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

To find the cross-relation between the mass of CO3 produced and the liters of fuel used we must find the unit rate of both relationships given.

We know:

The car uses 5 liters of fuel per 100 Km. The unit rate is 5/100 lt/km

The car produced 110 grams of CO2 for each kilometer traveled. The unit rate is 110 gr/Km

Since the kilometers is the common unit, we find the unit rate of CO2/fuel:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\frac{110}{1}}{\frac{5}{100}}=\frac{110}{1}}*\frac{100}{5}}= 110*20 = 2,200[/tex]

The mass of CO2 produced by one liter of fuel is 2,200 gr/lt
