A power plant is driven by the combustion of a complex fossil fuel having the formula C11H7S. Assume the air supply is composed of only N2 and O2 with a molar ratio of 3.76:1.00, and the N2 remains unreacted. In addition to the water produced, the fuels C is completely combusted to CO2 and its sulfur content is converted to SO2. In order to evaluate gases emitted at the exhaust stacks for environmental regulation purposes, the nitrogen supplied with the air must also be included in the balanced reactions. a Including the N2 supplied m the air, write a balanced combustion equation for the complex fuel assuming 100% stoichiometric combustion (i.e., when there is no excess oxygen in the products and the only C-containing product is CO2). Except in the case of N2, use only integer coefficients. b Including N2 supplied in the air, write a balanced combustion equation for the complex fuel assuming 120% stoichiometric combustion (i.e., when excess oxygen is present in the products and the only C-containing product is CO2). Except in the case of use only integer coefficients c Calculate the minimum mass (in kg) of air required to completely combust 1700 kg of C11H7S. d Calculate the air/fuel mass ratio, assuming 100% stoichiometric combustion. e Calculate the air/fuel mass ratio, assuming 120% stoichiometric combustion.
The carbon dioxide exhaled in the breath of astronauts is often removed from the spacecraft by reaction with lithium hydroxide 2LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(l) Estimate the grams of lithium hydroxide required per astronaut per day. Assume that each astronaut requires 2.50 103 kcal of energy per day. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 2.50 103 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of CO2 produced and hence the amount of LiOH required. The H for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.
Calcium peroxytoctahydrate is synthesized according to the following reaction. During the synthesis based on 3.5 g calcium carbonate, 7.5 mL of 18% HCl with a density of 1.19 and 5.5 mL of 25% NH3 with a density of 0.91 were used, and further hydrogen peroxide and excess water were added to the medium. Since 2.35 g of calcium peroxytoctahydrate is obtained in this way, what is the% yield of the experiment? (HCl: 36.5 g/mol; NH3: 17 g/mol; CaCO3: 100 g/mol; CaO2.8H2O: 216 g/mol) CaCO3 + 2HCl 2NH3 + H2O2 + 7H2O → CaO2.8H2O + CO2 + 2NH4+ + 2 Cl-

Citric acid, C6H8O7, a component of jams, jellies, and fruity soft drinks, is prepared industrially via fermentation of sucrose by the mold Aspergillus niger. The equation representing this reaction is C12H22O11 + H2O + 3O2 --> 2C6H8O7 + 4H2O Using a metric ton(1000kg) of sucrose the expected yield is 1122Kg.
