Describe the combustion characteristics of heptane and pentene?

The combustion of heptane and pentene will differ in that because pentene is an alkene, it is more likely to experience incomplete combustion because of the higher ratio of carbon to hydrogen than in alkanes. Some carbon will not be oxidized fully and will make soot. Heptane will have a higher heat of combustion than pentene because it has more bonds to be broken.


C7H16 plus 11O2 gives 7CO2 plus 8H2O - According to this equation how many moles of carbon dioxide will be produced if 5 moles of heptane are burned?

Well you can see from your equation that each mole of heptane produces 7 moles of Carbon dioxide when burned so 5 moles of heptane produces 5 X 7 moles of carbon dioxide. I'll let you do the maths.


How many molecules of water are produced when 3 molecules of heptane burn?

C7H16 + 1102 ------->8H2O + 7CO2 So 1 molecule of heptane produces 8 molecules of water on combustion and thus 3 molecules produces 24 molecules of water.
