Isooctane (C8H18) is a major component of gasoline. a. Using the following thermodynamic data, calculate the change in enthalpy for the combustion of 1.0 mol of isooctane. b. One gallon of isooctane has a mass of 2.6 kg. What is the change in enthalpy for the combustion of one gallon of this compound?

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation
