A natural gas contains 80.0 wt% CH4 and the balance C2H6. Five hundred cubic meters per hour of this gas at 40.0°C and 1.30 bar is to be burned with 25.0% excess air. The air flowmeter is calibrated to read the volumetric flow rate at standard temperature and pressure. What should the meter read (in SCMH — standard cubic meters per hour) when the flow rate is set to the desired value?

Three thousand cubic meters per day of a gas mixture containing methane and n-butane at 21°C enters an absorption tower. The partial pressures at these conditions are 103 kPa for methane and 586 kPa for n-butane. In the absorber, 80% of the butane is removed and the remaining gas leaves the tower at 38°C and a total pressure ot 550 kPa. What is the volumetric flow rate of gas at the exit? How many moles per day of butane are...
