Answer:

127529 KJ

Explanation:

Since 1gallon = 3.78 L= 3780 ml

The density of C8H18= 0.703 g/mL

Density = mass/volume

Mass= Density × volume

Mass= 0.703 g/mL × 3780 ml

Mass= 2657.34 g

Molar mass of C8H18= 114 g/mol

Number of moles= mass/molar mass

Number of moles= 2657.34/114

Number of moles= 23.31 moles

Since 1 mole evolved=5471 kJ

23.31 moles = 5471 kJ × 23.31 = 127529 KJ

Explanation:

Different atoms binds their outermost shell electrons with different amount of energy.

The amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom is the ionization energy.

  • Ionization energy measures the readiness of an atom to lose electrons.
  • From the given problem, we can infer that in group O the ionization energy decreases down the group.
  • Helium has the highest ionization energy.
  • Down a group on the periodic table, ionization energy decrease because:
  1.  atomic radii increases down the group.
  2. there is an increasing shielding/screening effect of inner shell electrons on the outermost shell electrons.

Answer:

The Sun and the planets were born from a cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula 4.6 billion years ago. The collapse of the solar nebula was most likely triggered by a shock wave from a nearby supernova explosion. The Sun formed in the center, with the planets surrounding it in a thin disk.
