A major component of gasoline is octane (C8H18). When octane is burned in air, it chemically reacts with oxygen gas (O2) to prod

uce carbon dioxide CO2 and water H2O. What mass of carbon dioxide is produced by the reaction of 7.58 g of octane? Please explain the answer to me like I'm five, I want to understand but the content makes no sense.

Answer:

Mass = 23.232 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₈H₁₈ = 7.58 g

Mass of CO₂ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂      →     16CO₂ + 18H₂O

Number of moles of octane:

Number of  moles =  mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 7.58 g/ 114.23 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.066 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ with octane from balance chemical equation.

                  C₈H₁₈            :           CO₂

                       2              :              16

                 0.066             :           16/2×0.066 = 0.528

Mass of CO₂ produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.528 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 23.232 g

What is the approximate time of death if the body temperature was 15.6°C?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

This stiffening process, called Rigor Mortis, has a roughly known time of occurrence and can therefore be used to estimate time of death. In general: If the body feels warm and no rigor is present, death occurred under 3 hours before. If the body feels warm and stiff, death occurred 3-8 hours earlier.
