Answer:

One gallon of octane produces approximately 7000 L of carbon dioxide.

Note:

I believe that the mass of octane should have been given as 2661 g. However, I understand that your instructor probably gave you this problem, so I will use 4000 g for the approximate mass of one gallon of octane. You can rework the problem on your own, substituting the correct masses of octane if you wish.

Step1. You must first determine the number of moles that are in 4000 g of octane, using the molar mass of octane. Step 2. Then you must determine the number of moles of carbon dioxide that can be produced by that number of moles of octane, based on the mole ratio between octane and carbon dioxide in the balanced equation. Step 3. Then use the ideal gas law to determine the volume in liters of carbon dioxide that can be formed.

synergistic interlayer and defect engineering in vs2 nanosheets toward efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction

Sever21 [200]

It is stated that VS2 nanosheets with abundant defects and an extended (001) interlayer spacing as large as 1.00 nm, which is a 74% expansion as compared to that (0.575 nm) of the pristine counterpart, may be produced using a straightforward one-pot solvothermal process.

For the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), the interlayer expanded VS2 nanosheets display exceptional kinetic metrics, including a low overpotential of 43 mV at a geometric current density of 10 mA cm2, a small Tafel slope of 36 mV dec1, and long-term stability of 60 h without any current fading. The performance is even comparable to that of the commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst and significantly better than that of the pure VS2 with a typical interlayer gap.
