Question:

Cetane, C₁₆H₃₄, is a typical petrodiesel with a standard enthalpy of combustion of -10,699.1 kJ mol^-1. Methyl linoleate, C₁₉H₃₄O₂, is a biodiesel with a standard enthalpy of combustion of -11,690.1 kJ mol^-1. What volume of methyl linoleate provides the same energy as one liter of cetane? The densities of cetane and methyl linoleate are 0.773 and 0.885 g mL^-1, respectively.
