<span>Combustion reaction for octane is as follows.
2C</span>₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ → 16CO₂ + 18H₂O

Moles (mol) = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol)

mass of octane = 15.1 g
molar mass of octane = <span>114.23 g/mol
Hence, moles of octane = 15. 1 g / </span><span>114.23 g/mol
                                       = 0.132 mol

The stoichiometric ratio between </span>C₈H₁₈ and CO₂ is 1 : 8.
Hence,
    moles of CO₂ produced = moles of octane burnt x 8
                                          = 0.132 mol x 8
                                          = 1.056 mol

Hence, 15.1 g of octane produce 1.056 moles of CO₂.

How much energy in joules is released when 18.5 grams of copper cools from 285 °C<br> down to 45 °C
nadya68 [22]

Answer: 1709.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since Q = ?

M = 18.5 grams

Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C

Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C

Q = 1709.4 Joules

Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.

Suppose a large atom bonds with a small
Zielflug [23.3K]
A large atom means that the radius would be large, meaning that the effective nuclear charge is low, therefore a lower electronegativity based on the periodic table. A smaller atom would mean the opposite, therefore a higher electronegativity. This combination would mean that the new molecule is polar.

Also, to answer your question, it would be most likely different from both atoms, as size doesn't really matter in a compound's properties.

What does a chemist do​
Mama L [17]
A chemist (from Greek chēm (ía) alchemy; replacing chemist from Medieval Latin alchimista[1]) is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties. The word 'chemist' is also used to address Pharmacists in Commonwealth English.
