All things being practically equal, if the energy content in gasoline were doubled, then the distance a car should travel per liter of gasoline should

1) be no different.
2) double.
3) quadruple.

If the low-energy and high-energy fuels are burned in the same time, then compared to the POWER produced by combustion of the low-energy gasoline, the power produced by the combustion of the higher-energy gasoline should
4) be no different.
5) double.
6) quadruple.
