Liquid octane (CH3(CH2),CH;) reacts with gaseous oxygen gas (0,) to produce gaseous carbon dioxide (CO,) and gaseous water (H,O). If 28.5 g of carbon dioxide is produced from the reaction of 11.4 g of octane and 55.6 g of oxygen gas, calculate the percent yield of carbon dioxide. Round your answer to 3 significant figures.
