A hospital energy centre is choosing between two fuels. Each fuel would provide the same amount of energy each day.
| Fuel | Mass of fuel burned each day (kg) | Sulfur content (% by mass) | Particulates produced (g per kg of fuel) |
|---|---|---|---|
| P | 900 | 0.08 | 0.25 |
| Q | 400 | 0.12 | 0.35 |
For each fuel, calculate the mass of sulfur in the fuel burned each day and the mass of particulates produced each day.
Explain which fuel is more suitable for reducing both acid rain and global dimming.
