The combustion of gasoline

Reference no: EM13690670

Question- Gases are evolved in many everyday events. One very common example is the combustion of gasoline, which contains the chemical octane (C8H18). Balance the combustion reaction shown below. Then calculate how many liters of carbon dioxide are produced from burning 1 mol of octane assuming that T is 298 K and P is 1atm. (Hint: Use the appropriate gas constant, R, based on the units provided.)

1 C8H18 + 25/2 O2 --> 8 CO2 + 9 H2O

Here is the problem which I am struggling on, please help me
