The equation for the burning of octane is:
2C8H18+25O2→16CO2+18H2O
If the relative molecular mass of carbon dioxide is 44.What is the mass of carbon dioxide produced by burning two moles of octane?
704 g
2C8H182 moles+25O2→16CO216 moles+18H2O
Mass of CO2 = 16 × 44 = 704 g
By burning 2 moles of octane, 704 g of CO2 is produced.
