Methane (CH4) gas flows into a combustion chamber at a rate of 200. L/min at 1.50 atm and ambient temperature. Air is added to the chamber at 1.00 atm and the same temperature, and the gases are ignited. a. To ensure complete combustion of CH4 to CO2(g) and H2O(g), three times as much oxygen as is necessary is reacted. Assuming air is 21 mole percent O2 and 79 mole percent N2, calculate the flow rate of air necessary to deliver the required amount of oxygen. b. Under the conditions in part a, combustion of methane was not complete as a mixture of CO2(g) and CO(g) was produced. It was determined that 95.0% of the carbon in the exhaust gas was present in CO2. The remainder was present as carbon in CO. Calculate the composition of the exhaust gas in terms of mole fraction of CO, CO2, O2, N2, and H2O. Assume CH4 is completely reacted and N2 is unreacted.

97 Homes in rural areas where natural gas service is not available often rely on propane to fuel kitchen ranges. The propane is stored as a liquid, and the gas to be burned is produced as the liquid evaporates. Suppose an architect has hired you to consult on the choice of a propane tank for such a new home. The propane gas consumed in 1.0 hour by a typical range burner at high power would occupy roughly 165 L at 25°C and 1.0 atm, and the range chosen by the client will have six burners. If the tank under consideration holds 500.0 gallons of liquid propane, what is the minimum number of hours it would take for the range to consume an entire tankful of propane? The density of liquid propane is 0.5077 kg/L.
Exhaled air contains 74.5% N2, 15.7% O2, 3.6% CO2, and 6.2% H2O (mole percent). (a) Calculate the molar mass of exhaled air. (b) Calculate the density of exhaled air at 37C and 757 mm Hg and compare the value you obtained with that of ordinary air (MM=29.0g/mol) under the same conditions.
Gypsum (plaster of Paris : CaSO,. 2H,0) is produced by the reaction of calcium carbonate and sulfuric acid. A certain lime stone analyzes: CaCO, 96.89 %; MgCO, 1.41 %; inerts 1.70 %. For 5 metric tons of limestone reacted completely, determine: a. kg of anhydrous gypsum (CaSO,) produced. b. kg of sulfuric acid solution (98 wt%) required.
To evaluate the use of renewable resources, an experiment was carried out with rice hulls. After pyrolysis, the product gas analyzed 6.4% CO2, 0.1% O2, 39% CO, 51.8% H2, 0.6% CH4, and 2.1% N2. It entered a combustion chamber at 90 °F and a pressure of 35.0 in. Hg and was burned with 40% excess air (dry) at 70 °F and an atmospheric pressure of 29.4 in. Hg; 10% of the CO remains. a. How many cubic feet of air were supplied per cubic foot of entering gas? b. How many cubic feet of product gas were produced per cubic foot of entering gas if the exit gas was at 29.4 in. Hg and 400 °F?
A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas city (MCI) to Baltimore (BWI) burned 11800 lb. of Jet A fuel. Jet A fuel is kerosene based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the Carbon:Hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight How much CO2 would be released into the atmosphere if those passengers and crew made the trip instead, in pairs, in hybrid cars at 50 miles per gallon. (Assume the density of gasoline to be 0.75kg L-1 and that carbon and hydrogen dominate the composition in a ratio 1:2. The road trip is 1082 miles.
One type of gas mixture used in anesthesiologyis a 50%/50% mixture (by volume) of nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen(O2), which can be premixed and kept in a cylinder for later use.Because these two gases don’t react chemically at or below 2000 psi, attypical room temperatures they form a homogeneous single gas phase,which can be considered an ideal gas. If the temperature drops below-6C, however, N2O may begin to condense out of the gas phase. Thenany gas removed from the cylinder will initially be nearly pure O2; asthe cylinder empties, the proportion of O2 will decrease until the gascoming from the cylinder is nearly pure N2O. In a hospital, pure oxygen may be delivered at 50 psi (gaugepressure) and then mixed with N2O. What volume of oxygen at 20Cand 50 psi (gauge pressure) should be mixed with 1.7 kg of N2O toget a 50%/50% mixture by volume at 20C? (a) 0.21 m3; (b) 0.27 m3;(c) 1.9 m3; (d) 100 m3

In another test, the valve of a 500 L cylinder full of the gas mixture at 2000 psi (gauge pressure) is opened wide so that the gas rushes out of the cylinder very rapidly. Why might some N2O condense during this process? (a) This is an isochoric process in which the pressure decreases, so the temperature also decreases. (b) Because of the rapid expansion, heat is…

For divers going to great depths, the composition of the air in the tank must be modified. The ideal composition is to have approximately the same number of O2 molecules per unit volume as in surface air (to avoid oxygen poisoning), and to use helium instead of nitrogen for the remainder of the gas (to avoid nitrogen narcosis, which results from nitrogen dissolving in the bloodstream). Of the molecules in dry surface air, 78.0% are N2, 21.0% are O2, and 1.00% are Ar. (Assume that the density of seawater is 1025 kg/m3 and the temperature is 20.0°C.) Density of dry air at 20.0°C is 1.20 kg/m3. Molar mass of N2 is 14.007 g/mol, O2 is 15.999 g/mol, and Ar is 39.948 g/mol. a: How many O2 molecules per cubic meter are there in surface air at 20.0°C and 1.00 atm? b: For a diver going to a depth of 141 m, what percentage of the gas molecules in the tank should be O2?
