Question
Gasoline is composed primarily of hydrocarbons, including
many with eight carbon atoms, called octanes. One of
the cleanest–burning octanes is a compound called 2,3,4-
trimethylpentane, which has the following structural formula:
The complete combustion of one mole of this compound
to CO21g2 and H2O1g2 leads to ΔH° = -5064.9 kJ.
(a) Write a balanced equation for the combustion of
1 mol of C8H181l2. (b) By using the information in
this problem and data in Table 5.3, calculate ΔHf° for
2,3,4-trimethylpentane.
