Q4. Petrol is a mixture of hydrocarbons such as octane, CyHie
When petrol is burned in a car engine, a large amount of carbon dioxide is produced.
This car uses 114 g of petrol to travel one mile.
Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide produced when this car travels one mile.
Assume that petrol is octane and that combustion is complete.
(Relative atomic masses: H= 1; C = 12,0 = 16)
The combustion of octane can be represented by this equation.
CH18 * 120,--8CO2 + 9H,0
