*3. A Formula One car uses octane as fuel. Octane is an organic compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen. During one lap of the Singapore Grand Prix, a Formula One car used up 2.964 kg of octane. (i) (a) Octane contains 84.2% carbon. Using this information only, determine the empirical formula of octane. (b) 26.0 moles of octane is consumed when the car completes one lap. Calculate the molar mass of octane. (ii) Using your answers from (a) and (b)(i), determine the molecular formula of octane. (c) A Formula One car has to complete 61 laps of the Singapore Grand Prix. Find the volume of octane (in dmÂș) required to complete the Singapore Grand Prix. (Density of octane = 700 kg/m3)
