Octane is made of 16 Hydrogen Molecules and 8 Carbon Molecules


When the reaction is balanced how many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every octane molecule burned?

How does soap mix with octane?

When soap is mixed with octane the non-polar ends of the soap molecules are attracted with induced-dipole induced-dipole attractions to the non-polar octane molecules. The octane molecules repel the polar ends of the soap and the soap molecules form inverted soap bubbles that attract polar molecules like water.

What would be the solubility of octane (C8H18) in water and why would this be?

Octane (C8H18) is nonpolar and does not have any functional groups that can interact with water, which is a polar solvent. Therefore, octane is not soluble in water. The lack of attraction between the nonpolar octane molecules and polar water molecules results in poor solubility.


What type of intermolecular bonding would there be between hexane molecules in liquid hexane and between octane molecules in liquid octane?

Between hexane molecules in liquid hexane and octane molecules in liquid octane, the predominant type of intermolecular bonding is London dispersion forces, which are a type of van der Waals force. These forces arise due to temporary dipoles that occur when electron distributions around the molecules fluctuate. Since both hexane and octane are nonpolar hydrocarbons, they lack stronger intermolecular interactions like hydrogen bonding or dipole-dipole interactions. Consequently, the strength of the dispersion forces increases with the size and molecular weight of the molecules, making octane have slightly stronger dispersion forces than hexane.


Why is the dissolution of water in octane prevented?

Water and octane are practically non miscible.


How many molecules of oxygen are needed to burn one molecule of fuel?

That depends on the fuel. Natural gas, methane, needs 2 molecules of oxygen, but gasoline, octane, needs 17 molecules of oxygen.


Why does octane have a higher boiling point then water?

Octane is a straight chain molecule with a large surface area and stacks easily with other octane molecules. This increases the strength of the London dispersion forces that keep the octane molecules attracted to each other. The London dispersion forces on octane are greater than for smaller straight chain molecules because octane is both heavier and has more electrons that make it more polarizable.


Is calcium 8 and Hydrogen18 imicible in water?

If you meant C8H18, it is an octane-isomer, than the answer is NO, not miscible with water. Petrol contains a lot (>50%) of octane molecules.
