Answer:
D. C₄H₁₀ and C₂H₅
<h2>
What is a empirical formula?</h2>
A chemical formula indicating the elements of a compound and their relative proportions, as (CH₂O)n.
Since an empirical formula indicates the ratio (proportions) of the elements in the compound, it can be used, along with the molar weight of the compound, to determine the molecular formula.
The empirical formula provides the smallest whole-number ratio among elements or compounds within a molecular compound. A compound is a chemical formed from atoms of different chemical elements.
Hence, Option D is correct.

Answer:
11.45kcal/g
2.612 × 10³ kcal
Explanation:
When a compound burns (combustion) it produces carbon dioxide and water. The combustion of 2-methylheptane can be represented by the following balanced equation:
2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ⇄ 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O
It releases 1.306 × 10³ kcal every 1 mol of C₈H₁₈ that is burned.
<em>What is the heat of combustion for 2-methylheptane in kcal/gram?</em>
We know that the molar mass of C₈H₁₈ is 114.0g/mol. Then, using proportions:

<em>How much heat will be given off if molar quantities of 2-methylheptane react according to the following equation? 2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ⇄ 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O</em>
In this equation we have 2 moles of C₈H₁₈. So,
