Answer:

the balanced equation to the combustion of gasoline is C8H18 + 12.5 O2 → 8 CO2 + 9 H2O (1)

Answer:

the equation of the octane and balanced combustion is as follows:

2C8H18 + 25O2 = 16CO2 + 18H2O

Explanation:

Octane combustion is a chemical chain reaction, producing heat.

The spark-ignited combustion engine transforms the thermal energy from the combustion of gasoline plus air into motive energy. The combustion of gasoline is preceded by the formation of gasoline and air in the carburettor, this mixture enters the cylinder through the supply system, then is compressed by the upward stroke of the piston and then inflamed by the spark. Due to combustion, the volume of the mixture increases rapidly, creating a strong pressure that moves the piston.

Discuss whether two products are required for a chemical reaction. (NEED HELP ASAP)
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

"These starting substances of a chemical reaction are called the reactants, and the new substances that result are called the products."

There is a beginning product, and a reactant is needed in order for something to happen.

For example, according to Newton, something cannot happen until an exterior force comes and stops/pushes it.

Sorry if this is incorrect, I am just 4th grade :(

Elemental Li and Na are prepared by electrolysis of a molten salt, whereas K, Rb, and Cs are prepared by chemical reduction.(c)
pishuonlain [190]

Calcium is used to isolate Rb from molten RbX because calcium has a smaller atomic radius than rubidium.

A chemical element's atomic radius, which is typically the average or typical distance between the nucleus's core and the outermost isolated electron, serves as a gauge for the size of an atom. There are numerous non-equivalent definitions of atomic radius since the border is not a clearly defined physical entity. Van der Waals radius, ionic radius, metallic radius, and covalent radius are the four most frequently used definitions of atomic radius. Atomic radii are typically measured in a chemically bound condition since it is challenging to isolated individual atoms in order to measure their radii individually.

The pressure in a cylinder of nitrogen continuously decreases as a gas is released from it. On the other hand, a cylinder of pro
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Nitrogen gas in nitrogen cylinder is in gaseous form only . So when gas is released , pressure decreases because moles of  gas in the cylinder decreases .

Propane gas in cylinder is in liquified form . The gas is partially in gaseous and liquid form . So when gas is released outside , pressure decreases inside but due to low pressure , some liquid form is converted into gaseous form which restores the pressure of gas inside cylinder . Hence , the pressure of gas remains unchanged inside cylinder.

How many degrees of unsaturation are lost or gained in the base-induced transformation from mito-ph to its photoactive ring-open
Fudgin [204]

Unsaturation (IHD) 2 hydrogen Needed

IHD = [(2n+2) -H]/2
(H: X=1, N=-1, O= zero)

Unsaturation:
Double bonds = 1
Rings = 1
Triple Bonds = 2

The degrees of unsaturation in a molecule are additive — a molecule with one double bond has one degree of unsaturation, a molecule with two double bonds has two degrees of unsaturation, and so forth.
