<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.

Marianna [84]

After the dillution of the solution, the wavelength of maximum absorption is decreased.

<h3>What is the wavelength of maximum absorption?</h3>

The wavelength of maximum absorption is the wavelength at which the solution absorbs the maximum amount of light. It is usually shown as a hump in the spectrum.

When the starting concentration of the  K2Cr2O7 is diluted, the wavelength of maxium absorption decreases.

Why is the Pacific Northwest receives so much precipitation?
lyudmila [28]

The Cascades rain shadow can be described as such: ocean-influenced moist air masses are forced to rise when they meet the tall moun- tains. The rising air cools, condenses, and the moisture falls as precipitation. On the leeward (dry) side of the mountain, the now dry air warms and sinks.
