15. a) 2,3,5-trimethylhexane b)3-ethyl-2,4,6,7-tetramethyloctane c)2,2-dimethylpentane 6
16. a)3-ethyl-3-methylhexane CH3 | CH3-CH2-CH-CH2-CH2-CH3 | CH2CH3
b) 1-ethyl-3-propylcyclohexane c) 2,4-dimethylheptane CH3-CH-CH2-CH-CH2-CH2-CH3 | | CH3 CH3 6
17. The general formula for a saturated hydrocarbon is CnH2n+2, 7 C atoms results in 16 H atoms, and 8 molecules of water.

Formula = C7H16

Therefore the balanced equation is

C7H16 + 11 O2 7CO2 + 8 H2O 3
18. a) This graph shows that the production of oil has increased substantially from 1910-2000, we would expect this increase due to a significant growth in population, the development of new technologies needing significant amounts of oil, a significant increase in power consumption, and an increase in motor vehicle usage. We would expect there to be slightly drops and peaks in the steady increase during certain times due economical struggle and booms.
b) This trend is not sustainable because our current known oil resources are limited. Some people may believe that our oil resources are unlimited, we just need to find more, however without having a current knowledge of an unlimited supply, and the continuing sharp increase in oil consumption over the past century, over time our oil supply will deplete.
c) In saying that, our supply of oil is depleting as rapidly as we are using it. It is important for each and every one of us to make lifestyle changes in order to conserve the remainder of our oil. In my household we are already conscious of our energy usage in order to preserve the oil and sustain our family income. We have up to date and efficient energy systems, we only use heat

    According to Kuwaiti scientists, global oil production will peak in 2014 (Hsu, 2010). These scientists used some of Hubbert’s techniques as well as adding new information such as the rise of renewable energy, economic factors, and new technological innovations (Hsu, 2010). Of course, there are many different opinions. Some believe we have already reached the peak. Nevertheless, the discovery of new oil is declining as the use of oil is increasing. This will eventually lead to the peak in oil production.…

    Furthermore, society currently needs oil. The United States and numerous other countries are working on ways in which we will lessen, and possibly eliminate, our reliance on oil. However, until that happens we need to continue using the resources that are currently available. Mankind is a very intelligent species and is able to create ways to improve our reliance on fossil fuels. Based on current trends it appears we will someday soon be using more “green”…

    Continued apathy and negligence of of the environment is just not viable any longer. The only fossil fuel that is capable of lasting into the next century has the most concentrated, detrimental, and long term effects on the environment. Oil has some of the most horrific and immediate effects on wildlife when mishandled. Oil spills, while on the decline, produce abhorrent conditions that harm not just the wildlife present, but that ecosystem as a whole. Additionally, oil is the biggest player when it comes to fuel in the transportation sector, which is notorious for the greenhouse gas emission that arise from it. If those were not reason enough to make significant strides away from oil, oil is not projected to even make it into the second half of the century. Given this, and that we have the resources to pursue renewable energy, it is simply impractical to continue to maintain oil as a primary fuel source. Natural gas seems to me to be equally dangerous despite having the lowest emissions of the three because it is deceptively harmful. On the surface it burns clean but often methane gas leaks in transportation and even the enormous pool of issues that fracking leads to are too frequently overlooked. Again, irrespective of these, natural gas must be abandoned soon or we will exhaust natural gas reserves before oil is totally depleted. The solution to the fossil fuel problem lies in renewable and green energy. Solar energy is still young but it has enormous potential. Wind energy works very well but it can be a nuisance and an extreme hazard to airborne wildlife. Hydroelectric energy can be more widely implemented but the dams are liable to disrupt spawning patterns of some fish, particularly salmon. Nuclear energy is incredibly efficient but runs into social and economic barriers. After my research, I have come to the conclusion that the best solution…

    To Drill or Not to Drill

    I also think that we should continue to come up with new green technologies such as, solar power and clean oil. We should continue to research and advance those technologies that we already do have, not to mention create new technologies. One day, we will use up all the oil that the Earth has to offer. It is a supply and demand situation, right now; the demand is outpacing the supply. I have a neutral opinion I guess. I believe that we should continue to drill oil within our country and also create new technologies to harvest those resources. In my opinion it is important for the United States to be independent when it comes to oil. My reasoning on this is just in case of a war breaking out between us and another country or two different countries, but we are allies to them. This still could create problem for the United States, unless we are dependent on ourselves. I believe that I am pretty open-minded to this…
