Problem 2 :
a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of octene (C₈H₁₆).
b) Calculate the number of moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂) produced when 1 mole of octene is completely burned.
Solution :
a) The balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of octene (C₈H₁₆) is: C₈H₁₆ + 12O₂ → 8CO₂ + 8H₂O
b) According to the balanced equation, 1 mole of octene produces 8 moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂).
