Which answer best describes what is happening in the following reaction? 2C8H18 + 25O2 Right arrow. 16CO2 + 18H2O
This is not a redox reaction. It is an example of combustion.
This is a redox reaction in which octane (C8H18) is oxidized.
This is a redox reaction in which carbon dioxide (CO2) burns due to ignition.
This is not a redox reaction, because a solution of carbon dioxide and water results.

This is a redox reaction in which octane (C8H18) is oxidized.

Explanation:

b. This is a redox reaction in which octane (C8H18) is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

edge 2021 i just did it

answer: the primary difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that b hypothesis is falsifiable, but a theory has been proven to be correct. theory is an explanation of something that is happening but hypothesis is a guess of something that can happen

explanation:

it can be observed without changing the identity of the object.

it depends on what substance you're talking about as well as many other factors. in quantum mechanics, the observation of particles affects the observers ability to measure certain properties. for example: you can know the velocity of a particle, but you can't know it's position; or you can know it's position, but not it's velocity. it's like trying to find out where a grain of sand is by throwing other grains of sand at it. once you find out where it is, it's been moved. it's also like trying to find an answer to the question of whether or not a tree falling in a forest makes a sound if nobody is there to hear it. paradoxically, the only way to find out is to be there and hear it.
