Ethanol, C2H6O, is most often blended with gasoline - usually as a 10 percent mix - to create a fuel called gasohol. Ethanol is a renewable resource and ethanol-blended fuels, like gasohol, appear to burn more efficiently in combustion engines. The heat of combustion of ethanol is 326.7 kcal/mol.The heat of combustion of 2-methylhexane, C7H16, is 1.150×103 kcal/mol. How much energy is released during the complete combustion of 446 grams of 2-methylhexane ?________ kcal Assuming the same efficiency, would 446 grams of ethanol provide more, less, or the same amount of energy as 446 grams of 2-methylhexane? _________. (more, less, or the same amount)

Acetylene torches are used for welding. These torches use a mixture of acetylene gas, C2H2C2H2, and oxygen gas, O2O2 to produce the following combustion reaction: 2C2H2(g)+5O2(g)→4CO2(g)+2H2O(g)2C2H2(g)+5O2(g)→4CO2(g)+2H2O(g) Part A Imagine that you have a 7.00 LL gas tank and a 4.50 LL gas tank. You need to fill one tank with oxygen and the other with acetylene to use in conjunction with your welding torch. If you fill the larger tank with oxygen to a pressure of 125 atmatm , to what pressure should you fill the acetylene tank to ensure that you run out of each gas at the same time? Assume ideal behavior for all gases. Express your answer with the appropriate units.
