A sample of gasoline produces the same knocking as a mixture containing 35% n-heptane and 65% iso-octane. What is octane rating of the sample?
Out of 2, 2, 3-trimethylbutane, 2,2 4-trimethylpentane and 2, 2, 3, 3,-tetramethyl butane which has the highest octane number? Explain.
The octane number increases as the branching increases, therefore, 2, 2, 3, 3-tetramethyl butane having four branches has the highest octane number.
Arrange the following in order of increasing volatility: gasoline, kerosene and diesel.
