The alkane 2,2,4 trimethylpentane can be used as a fuel in anordinary engine designed for gasoline. In fact it has an "octanerating" of 100. In the fuel industry it is called iso-octane. Writea balanced equation for the combustion of this alkane with oxygengas. Assume that the products are carbon dioxide and water. Answerthe following question: If ONE mole of iso-octane is burned, howmany mols of water are formed?



a. 12

b. 10

c. 9

d. 7

e. 5
