Answer:

Explanation: Volumetric energy density is the calculation of how much energy is contained in a system compared to its volume expressed in Megajoules per liter.

Listed below are transport fuels from lowest to highest:

1. Compressed natural gas - 9MJ/L

2. Ethanol  - 24MJ/L

3. Gasoline - 34.2 MJ/L

4. Diesel - 38MJ/L
