Acid rain falling on limestone
I believe the percent yield is 56% if going by the formula of mass of actual yield/theoretical yield x 100%/
Answer:
0.3mol C8H18
Explanation:
For this we must first look at the reaction taking place:
C8H18+O2 --> H2O + CO2
Balancing the equation we get:
2(C8H18)+25(O2) --> 18(H2O) + 16(CO2)
Form there we now need to know how many moles of Octane are needed to produce 2.4moles of H2O. The conversion is as follows:
2.4molH2O ((2mol of C8H18)/(18mol of H2O)) = 0.3mol C8H18
