The density of pentane, a component of gasoline, is 0.63 g>mL. The heat of combustion

Chapter 0, Problem 11.65

(choose chapter or problem)

The density of pentane, a component of gasoline, is 0.63 g/mL. The heat of combustion for pentane is 845 kcal/mole. (7.2, 7.4, 7.7, 7.8, 8.6, 11.2, 11.4)

a. Write the balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of pentane.

b. What is the molar mass of pentane?

c. How much heat is produced when 1 gal of pentane is burned (1 gal = 4 qt)?

d. How many liters of \(CO_2\) at STP are produced from the complete combustion of 1 gal of pentane?
