A major component of gasoline is octane (CH18). When liquid octane is burned in air it reacts with oxygen (O,) gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 0.500 mol of water. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to 3 significant digits.

Imagine you are working in a lab, and you want to prepare a solution of cobalt(II) chloride. You know that the chemical is purchased in the solid form as a hydrate. You find the reagent bottle containing a vibrant purple solid; however, the chemical formula and molecular weight are obscured such that you can't read how many waters are associated with the ionic solid. You don't want to be wasteful, so you decide to determine the number of waters by heating the solid and taking the mass difference (a la the hydrate lab!). You carefully weigh out exactly 1.0096 g of the unknown hydrate. You gently heat the compound over a low flame until the mass stops changing and the deep purple color fades. The mass of the remaining compound is 0.6492 g. Determine the chemical formula of the original compound.
