The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ---> 16CO₂ + 18H₂O
stoichiometry of octane to CO₂ is 2:16
number of C₈H₁₈ moles reacted - 191.6 g / 114 g/mol = 1.68 mol
when 2 mol of octane reacts it forms 16 mol of CO₂
therefore when 1.68 mol of octane reacts - it forms 16/2 x 1.68 = 13.45 mol of CO₂
number of CO₂ moles formed - 13.45 mol
therefore mass of CO₂ formed - 13.45 mol x 44 g/mol = 591.8 g
mass of CO₂ formed is 591.8 g

Answer:
The solution to this question is shown on the second uploaded image
Explanation:
First, you need to calculate the standard cell potential using standard reduction potential from a textbook or online. Since Mg becomes Mg+2, magnesium is being oxidized because it is losing electrons, you need to flip its potential
Fe+2 + 2e- --> Fe potential= -0.44
Mg+2 + 2e- --> Mg potential= -2.37
Cell potential= (-0.44) + (+2.37)= 1.93 V
Now, you need to use Nernst formula to get the answer. I have attached a PDF with the work.
0.20 moles of iron will be formed in the reaction.
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between iron (iii) oxide and carbon monoxide to form Fe is to be known first.
the balanced reaction is :
Fe2O3 + 3CO⇒ 2 Fe + 3 CO2
so from the data given the number of moles of carbon monoxide can be known:
3 moles of CO reacted with Fe2O3 to form 2 moles of iron in the reaction.
Number of moles of CO is 6.20 moles
11.6 gm of iron is formed
so the number of moles of iron formed is calculated as
n = mass of iron ÷ atomic weight of iron
= 11.6 ÷ 55.84
= 0.20 moles of iron will be formed when 11.6 gram of iron is produced.
