The combustion of liquid octane (\(C_8H_{18(l)}\)) follows \(C_8H_{18(l)} + 12.5 O_2(g) \rightarrow 8 CO_2(g) + 9 H_2O(l)\). Given standard enthalpies of formation: \(\Delta H_f^\circ(C_8H_{18(l)}) = -250\) kJ mol⁻¹, \(\Delta H_f^\circ(CO_2(g)) = -393.5\) kJ mol⁻¹, \(\Delta H_f^\circ(H_2O(l)) = -285.8\) kJ mol⁻¹, and \(\Delta H_f^\circ(O_2(g)) = 0\). Calculate the amount of energy released (in kJ) when 2.00 g of octane is completely combusted.
