Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.85QE
The octane number of gasoline is based on a comparison of the gasoline’s behavior with that of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, C8H18(ℓ), which is arbitrarily assigned an octane number of 100. The standard enthalpy of combustion of this compound is −5456.6 kJ/mol.
- (a) Write the thermochemical equation for the combustion of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane.
- (b) Use the standard enthalpies of formation in Appendix G to calculate the standard enthalpy of formation of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane.
