Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{528.7 g} }

Explanation:

It often helps to write the heat as if it were a reactant or a product in the thermochemical equation.

Then you can consider it to be 11018 "moles" of "kJ"  

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

M_r:                      32.00

              2C₈H₁₈ + 25O₂ ⟶ 16CO₂ + 8H₂O + 11 018 kJ

n/mol:                                                                  7280

1. Moles of O₂

The molar ratio is 25 mol O₂:11 018 kJ

\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{7280 kJ} \times \dfrac{\text{25 mol O}_{2}}{\text{11 018 kJ}} = \text{16.52 mol O}_{2}

2. Mass of O₂

\text{Mass of C$_{8}$H}_{18} = \text{16.52 mol O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \textbf{528.6 g O}_{2}\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{528.67 g O}_{2}}$}

How does matter change phase?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Phase changes typically occur when the temperature or pressure of a system is altered. When temperature or pressure increases, molecules interact more with each other. When pressure increases or temperature decreases, it's easier for atoms and molecules to settle into a more rigid structure.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

- The chemical reaction is not balanced. There is two oxygens on the reactant's side while there's only one oxygen on the products side.

- I would not say it's following the law of conservation of mass as it's not a balanced equation.

- To balance this equation, you would need to add the coefficient of '2' to Magnesium (Mg) on the reactants side, and add the coefficient of '2' to the products side.  This would make it so that there's 2 Mg's and 2 O's on both the reactant's side and products side.

edit: I hope this helped you in some way. ^^

In what type of radioactive decay does the atomic number of the product decrease by one? Select all that apply.
VladimirAG [237]
The atomic number of the product decrease by one in the d) positron emission and the e) electron capture radioactive decay. These radioactive decays are two of three common forms of the Beta Decay which occurred when the proton released a positron and a neutron emitted an electron<span>. The Beta Decay can increase or decrease the atomic number.</span>
