How many moles of isooctane must be burned to produce 100 kJ of heat under standard state condaitions?
1 answer:
Answer:
0.018 moles of isooctane must be burned to produce 100 kJ.
Explanation:
When the isooctane is <em>burned</em>, it undergoes a reaction known as combustion, in which reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. In standard conditions (Pressure = 1 atm and Temperature = 298 K) formed water is liquid. The balanced equation is:
C₈H₁₈(l) + 12.5 O₂(g) ⇄ 8 CO₂(g) + 9 H₂O(l)
The standard enthalpy of combustion (which can be found in tables) relates the amount of isooctane that reacts and the heat the reaction liberates. In this case, ΔH°c = -5,460 kJ/mol, that is every 1 mol of isooctane that burns, 5,460 kJ of heat are released.
We can begin with the information of 100 kJ and apply this conversion factor. Since this energy is released, by convention, we write it with a minus sign.

Explanation:
The product formed as a result of the reaction of cyclohexene with H2 in presence of Pt (platinum) can be described as catalytic hydrogenation. Catalytic hydrogenation is defined as the process of hydrogen addition in the presence of a catalyst, which in this case is platinum.
Note that Cyclohexene (alkene) is a hydrocarbon molecule represented by the chemical formula, C6H10 .
It consists of a double bond. During the hydrogenation reaction, the alkene undergoes an addition reaction to give alkane which is a saturated hydrocarbon as the product.
The first step in order to derive the product is to draw the chemical structure of cyclohexene and identify the double bond present in it.
The final product can be derived by replacing the double bond with the single bond and satisfying all the valences of the carbon atom. The final product structure has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.
