When the reaction is balanced how many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every octane molecule burned?
8- apex
Why does burning octane harm the enviorment?
Because octane ,C8H18, has a long chain of molecules, more energy is needed to break the bonds. Therefore releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere. :)
What is cracking and reforming?
Craking is the process whereby complex molecules are broken down into simpler molecules : Example : C36H74 + H2 >> C2H6 + C34H70 Reforming is a process used to convert molecules having low octane ratings into hight- octane liquid products Example CH3(CH2)6CH3 >> CH3C(CH3)2CH2CH(CH3)CH3
Since water is a much smaller molecule than octane C8H18 one would expect it to flow more quickly However studies show that water is almost four times as viscous as octane How can this be explain?
Octane molecules have almost no interaction with each other but water molecules link up together via a process called hydrogen bonding. This increases the viscosity, boiling and melting points for water.
How many electrons are in octane?
66. Octane is C8H18. therefore the total number of electrons is 6*8 + 18*1
What is octane made of?
Octane is made of 16 Hydrogen Molecules and 8 Carbon Molecules
If you pump 40.88 kg of octane C8H18 into your gas tank how many molecules of octane are you pumping?
3.487*1013
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.
How many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every octane molecule burned?
6
When the reaction is balanced how many carbon dioxide molecules are produced for every octane molecule burned?
8- apex
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.
How many moles are in 95.0 gram of octane?
how many moles are in 95.0 gram of octane?
Why does burning octane harm the enviorment?
Because octane ,C8H18, has a long chain of molecules, more energy is needed to break the bonds. Therefore releasing more CO2 into the atmosphere. :)
Is it always true that the molecules of dense liquid are heavier than the molecules of lighter molecules?
NO. Water has a density greater than gasoline, but gasoline, octane anyway, has a greater molecular mass than water molecules.
