To determine the percentages of iso-octane and n-heptane in a mixture that has the same knocking behavior as a fuel with an octane number of 60, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Octane Number**: The octane number of a fuel is a measure of its ability to resist knocking during combustion. It is defined by comparing the fuel's performance to a mixture of iso-octane and n-heptane. 2. **Know the Reference Fuels**: Iso-octane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) is assigned an octane number of 100, while n-heptane is assigned an octane number of 0. The octane number of a fuel can be calculated based on the percentage of these two components in a mixture. ...
