156251.099 grams of O₂ are required to burn 17.0 gal of C₈H₁₈

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than objects with a smaller type of mass

The unit of density can be expressed in g / cm³ or kg / m³

Density formula:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{\rho~=~\frac{m}{V} }}}$

ρ = density

m = mass

v = volume

1 gal equal to = 3785.41 ml

then 17.0 gal = 17 x 3785.41 = 64351.97 ml Octane

grams Octane = ρ x ml

grams Octane = 0.692 g.ml x 64351.97

grams Octane = 44531.563

molar mass Octane (C₈H₁₈) = 114

mole Octane = grams : molar mass

mole Octane = 44531.563 : 114

mole Octane = 390.627

From the reaction

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2 O₂ ⇒ 8 CO₂ + 9H₂O

mole C₈H₁₈ : mole O₂ = 1 : 25/2

$mole\:O_2\:=\:\frac{25}{2} \times\:390.627$

mole O₂ = 4882.846

grams O₂ = mole x molar mass

grams O₂ = 4882.846 x 32

grams O₂ = 156251.099

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Mars would have different variations of brown, red, and orange.

Explanation:

Since different places of Mars have different substances or have different "ages" the color will be different.

Rust is formed because iron reacts to different substances, so there might be different weather patterns around Mars, and hence different colors of the rocks, iron, etc.

Hope this helps:)

Sorry just a 4th grader :(

Which of the following statements are true concerning ionic bonding? Select one: a. Ionic bonding occurs between a metal, which

spin [16.1K]

Answer: $CaCl_2$ forms because $Ca^{2+}$ is always a more stable species than the calcium atom alone

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element or the metal and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element or non metal.Thus the electronegativity difference between the bonding atoms of ionic compounds is large.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

In $CaCl_2$ , calcium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as $Ca^{2+}$ cation and chloride $Cl^{-}$ is an anion with oxidation state of -1. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral $CaCl_2$ .
