OCTANE - A rating scale used to grade gasoline as to its antiknock properties. Also any of several isometric liquid paraffin hydrocarbons, C8H18. Normal octane is a colorless liquid found in petroleum boiling at 124.6 degrees Celsius. OCTANE RATING - A measure of a gasoline's resistance to exploding too early in the engine cycle, which causes knocking. The higher the rating, the lower the chance of premature ignition.
In 1852 Sir Isaac newton discovered octane. It was discovered right after the discovery of petroleum during the Industrial Revolution.
if you want to go deeper into that subject you my want to ask a real scientist and not random websites where anybody can answer like so...
octane is not a chemical or physical property. Properties are what define something not what they are. So octane has both chemical and physical properties.
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.
No, C8H18 is not an aqueous solution. It is a chemical formula for octane, which is a hydrocarbon compound commonly found in gasoline.

The chemical formula of octane is C8H18.
No, C8H18 is not an aqueous solution. It is a chemical formula for octane, which is a hydrocarbon compound commonly found in gasoline.
yes.
Octane has the chemical formula - C8H18. It is a hydro-carbon.
No, it is a Molecular Compound. The Formula is C8H18; which means there are 8 atoms of Carbon and 18 Atoms of Hydrogen. These are both Nonmetals making it a Molecular Compound's.
Octane is the only thing that can be decomposed by chemical means.
Octane is a carbon containing compound. It has 8 carbon atoms in the structure.
Potassium hydroxide is a polar compound. Octane is a non polar compound. Therefore, these compounds would not be dissolved in each other.
Octane is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar compound.
