Chapter 6, Problem 62E
The chemical composition of air that is exhaled (expired) is different from ordinary air. A typical analysis of expired air at 37 °C and 1.00 atm, expressed as percent by volume, is 74.2% N2.15.2% O2, 3.8% CO2, 5.9% H2O, and 0.9% Ar. The composition of ordinary air is given practice Example 6-12B.
a. What is the ratio of the partial pressure of CO2(g)in expired air to that in ordinary air?
b. Would you expect the density of expired air to greater or less than that of ordinary air at the same temperature and pressure? Explain.
c. Confirm your expectation by calculating the densities of ordinary air and expired air at 37 °C and 1.00 atm.

- 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.
