Octane has a density of 0.703 g/ml. Calculate the mass of CO2(g) produced by burning one

The mass of CO₂ gas produced during the combustion of one gallon of octane is 8.21 kg.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Density of the octane, ρ = 0.703 g/ml</em>
  • <em>Volume of octane, v = 3.79 liters</em>

<em />

The mass of the octane burnt is calculated as follows;

m = \rho V\\\\m = 0.703 \ \frac{g}{ml} \times 3.79 \ L \ \frac{1000 \ ml}{L} \\\\m = 2,664.37 \ g

The combustion reaction of octane is given as;

2C_8H_{18} +  \ 25O_2 \ --> \ 16CO_2 \ + \ 18H_2O

From the reaction above:

228.46 g of octane -------------------> 704 g of  CO₂ gas

2,664.37 of octane --------------------> ? of CO₂ gas

= \frac{2,664.37 \times 704}{228.46} \\\\= 8,210.3 \ g\\\\= 8.21 \ kg

Thus, the mass of CO₂ gas produced during the combustion of one gallon of octane is 8.21 kg.

For each pair; which has higher kinetic energy?
RideAnS [48]

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as the energy obtained by an object due to its motion. Whereas energy obtained by an object due to its position is known as potential energy.

(a)   When a sled is resting at the top of a hill then it means the sled in not moving. Hence, then it has only potential energy. But when a sled sliding down the hill  then it is moving from its initial position.

Hence, when a sled is sliding down the hill then it has higher kinetic energy.

(b)    When water is above the dam then it only has potential energy but when the water falls over the dam then it has higher kinetic energy.

During an endothermic phase change, what happens to the potential energy and the kinetic energy?
antiseptic1488 [7]

During endothermic phase change, the potential energy of the system always increases while the kinetic energy of the system remains constant. The potential energy of the reaction increases because energy is been added to the system from the external environment.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Those are three distinct methods for demonstrating a specific energy condition of an object. They don't affect one another.
  • "Potential Energy" is a relative term showing a release of possible energy to the environment. If we accept its pattern as the overall energy state of a compound, at that point, an endothermic phase change would infer an increase in "potential" as energy is being added to the compound by the system.
  • A phase change will display an increase in the kinetic energy at whatever point the compound is transforming from a high density to a low dense phase. The kinetic energy will decrease at whatever point the compound is transforming from a less dense to high dense phase.
