Don't take my word for it but I think it is
1: proteins
2: energy from the sun, carbon dioxide, and water
3: this one is confusing me but I think it would be nutrients from food and oxygen
4: water
Again these are attempts I can't prove these
I would say the energy has to be decreased by 87 kj because the bonding is held together by 87 kj so removing that should prevent the bonding from taking place or reverse it I believe. In other words, a certain amount of energy is required to hold the bond together and in the absence of that energy, the bonding will not take place.
The answer is: the mass of carbon is 420.6 grams.
m(C₈H₁₈) = 500 g; mass of octane.
M(C₈H₁₈) = 114.22 g/mol; molar mass of octane.
n(C₈H₁₈) = m(C₈H₁₈) ÷ M(C₈H₁₈).
n(C₈H₁₈) = 500 g ÷ 114.22 g/mol.
n(C₈H₁₈) = 4.38 mol; amount of octane.
In one molecule of octane, there are eight carbon atoms:
n(C) = 8 · n(C₈H₁₈).
n(C) = 8 · 4.38 mol.
n(C) = 35.02 mol; amount of carbon.
m(C) = 35.02 mol · 12.01 g/mol.
m(C) = 420.6 g; mass of carbone.
Combustion involves with heat. The answer is burning wood.
