A major component of gasoline is octane (C8H18). When liquid octane is burned in air it reacts with oxygen (O₂) gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of octane needed to produce 0.060 mol of water. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.
