Chapter 4, Problem 4.90P

Propane is burned completely with excess oxygen. The product gas contains 24.5 mole% CO2, 6.10% CO. 40.8% H2O. and 28.6% O2.

  1. Calculate the percentage excess O2 fed to the furnace.

  • A student wrote the stoichiometric equation of the combustion of propane to form CO2 and CO as
  • 2C3H8 + ^O2

    3CO2 + 3CO + 8H2O

    According to this equation. CO2 and CO should be in a ratio of 1/1 in the reaction products, but in the product gas of Part (a) they are in a ratio of 24.8/6.12. Is that result possible? (Hint: Yes.) Explain how.

    A 0.879 g sample of a CaCl2·2H2O/K2C2O4·H2O solid salt mixture is dissolved in ~100mL of deionized water. The precipitate, after having been filtered and air-dried, has a mass of 0.284 g. The limiting reactant in the salt mixture was later determined to beCaCl2 ·2H2O.   a.Write the ionic equation for the reaction.   b.Write the net ionic equation for the reaction.   c.How many moles and grams of CaCl2 ·2H2O reacted in the reaction mixture?   d.How many moles and grams of the excess reactant, K 2C2O 4H2O, reacted in the mixture?   e.How many grams of the K2C2O4·H2O in the salt mixture remain unreacted (inexcess)?   f.What is the percent by mass of each salt in the mixture
    A fuel contains 78wt% carbon and 22wt% hydrogen (H). Combustion results in the following composition by volume (dry basis): CO2 : 9.41 CO : 1.69 O2 : 3.8 N2: 85.1 The following equations describe the chemical reactions taking place: CO+0.5 O2→ CO2 C+O2→ CO2 H2 + 0.5 O2 → H2O C+0.5O2→ CO On the basis of 120 lb moles of dry flue gas, the O2 required (lb moles) for complete combustion is most nearly. Find the amount of O2 needed for the completion of combustion
    The nitrogen content of organic compounds can be determined by the Dumas method.The compound in question is first passed over hot CuO(s): Compound  ----> N2(g) + CO2(g) + H2O(g) The gaseous products are then passed through a concentrated aqueous KOH solution to remove the CO2.The remaining gas contains N2 and water vapor.A 0.185-g sample of a compound was treated as above, producing 82.2 mL of N2 saturated with water vapor at 25 °C and 775.0 torr.What is the mass percent of nitrogen in the compound? (The vapor pressure of water at 25 °C is 23.8 torr.)
