Well, there is a paragraph dedicated to the question. Isn't feasibility an opinion. I assume that if everybody, or a good majority decided it was the better thing to do then it would happen.

No, I guess if I learned more about the subject and did extensive research I would find my own answers, perhaps even their answers.

1) What is a common disadvantage of switching to clean fuels for vehicles?
A higher cost for vehicles and fuel.
| OK |
2) What is the most overwhelming common advantage of switching to clean fuels?
It decreases in air pollution and using it would decrease our dependancy on imported oils.
| OK |
3) Does this article really answer whether clean fuels are feasible?
Well, there is a paragraph dedicated to the question. Isn't feasibility an opinion. I assume that if everybody, or a good majority decided it was the better thing to do then it would happen. And that is kind of what the paragraph mentions.
| OK |
4) List the fuels on the Comparison chart by octane rating, from lowest to highest:
Electricity No. 2 Diesel, Biodiesel(B20), Gasoline, Ethanol(E85) and Methanol (M85), Liquified Petroleum Gas (LPG), Compressed Natural Gas(CNG) and Liquified Natural Gas (LNG), and Hydrogen.
| OK |
5) Which alternative fuel has the most diversity to date for types of vehicles?
Ethanol (E85)
| OK |
6) Rank the all the fuels on the chart by their energy content from highest to lowest:
No. 2 Diesel, Biodiesel, Gasoline, LPG, Ethanol (E85), LNG, Methanol (M85), and CNG Electricity and Hydrogen
| OK |
7) Gaging by the chart, what seems to be the safest fuel?
Hydrogen
| OK |
8) Do you have any way of gaging whether this chart was accurate or not? How would you go about finding out if it is true or not?
No, I guess if I learned more about the subject and did extensive research I would find my own answers, perhaps even their answers. They can't possibly know EVERYTHING about the fuels or the future affect of using these fuels.
