Chemistry

Suppose 3 large tankers containing liquefied natural gas (LNG)leave a gas export terminal every day. The methane is stored inliquid form in the tankers, at -260°F, in a volume 600 timessmaller than would be needed in gas form, at STP (StandardTemperature and Pressure: 0°C temperature, 1 atm pressure). Supposethe average tanker at this port carries an amount of LNG equivalentto 125 million cubic meters of methane at STP. The energy contentof methane is 38.5 MJ per cubic meter at STP. How many gigawatts(GW) of power does this daily flow of natural gas through the portrepresent?
