Question

A complete combustion of octane, C8H18, a component of gasoline, proceeds as: C8H18(l ) +   O2(g)  →   CO2(g)  +   H2O(l)  {unbalanced equation}

Atomic weights (g/mol): C=12, H=1, O=16

If 466 grams of oxygen reacts with 1.5 moles of octane, how much (in moles) of the excess reactant remains unreacted? Enter final answer with TWO decimal places (e.g. 37.18 or 35.00 or 98.20); numeric answers only, do not include the units.
