Chapter 5, Problem 5.105P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of gaseous products measured at $350°\text{C}$ and $\text{735 torr}$ produced by combustion of $100.{\text{ g C}}_{\text{8}}{\text{H}}_{\text{18}}$ automobile engine is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The expression to calculate the mole solute is as follows:

  $\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}}$

The ideal gas equation can be expressed as follows,

  $PV=nRT$

Here, $P$ is the pressure, $V$ is the volume, $T$ is the temperature, $n$ is the mole of the gas and $R$ is the gas constant.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The total volume of the engine’s gaseous exhaust is to be calculated.
