1.In an experimental cracking of octane (C8H18), the product has the following composition: 19.5% C3H8, 59.4% C4H10, and 21.1% C5H12. Cracking is the process of reacting long hydrocarbon chains with hydrogen gas to produce hydrocarbons of shorter lengths. Determine the molar ratio of hydrogen gas consumed to octane reacted.
