2C8H18 + 25 O2 → 16CO2 + 18 H2O + energy so the reactants are octane (actually there are other hydrocarbons present too) and oxygen.
EXOTHERMIC
It forms H2O when burned.There are 3.744 moles of H2O after burned.
Balanced equation: 2C8H18 + 25O2 ==> 16CO2 + 18H2Omoles of octane used: 325 g x 1 mole/114g = 2.85 moles octanemoles H2O produced: 18 moles H2O/2 moles C8H18 x 2.85 moles C8H18 = 25.65 moles H2O
6,49 moles of water are obtained.

Octane is one of the alkane group of hydrocarbons and is a major component of petrol (gasoline). Burning octane gives this chemical reaction: 2.C8H18 + 25.O2 = 16.CO2 + 18.H2O The formula shows that 1 kg of octane burns with 3.51 kg oxygen to produce 3.09 kg carbon dioxide and 1.42 kg water.

It depends on the type of engine and how high of octane you are running. Octane slows the burning of fuel, so if it is too high of octane for the engine, you will end up burning out your exhaust valves because burning fuel is being pushed out of them. 92 or 93 octane that is available at fuel pumps as "premium" fuel is ok for most engines. I wouldn't run anything over about 100 octane.

Octane is a compound. octane + O2 = CO2 + H2O + Energy, You can tell by the inputs and outputs. Octane and Oxygen inputs and Carbon dioxide and water outputs, means Octane must consist of hydrogen H and carbon C, thus a compound not an element.
Octane rating is the resistance to burning. For example (not real number) a gas with an octane rating of 50 will burn at 100 degrees Fahrenheit whereas a gas with an octane rating of 100 will burn at 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Higher the octane number the harder it is to burn.
