Methane gas (CH4) at 25 °C is burned steadily with dry air, which enters a combustion chamber of a natural gas boiler in a small power plant at 17 °C. The volumetric analysis of the flue gas on a dry basis is 5.2% carbon dioxide, 0.33% carbon monoxide, 11.24% diatomic oxygen, and 83.23% diatomic nitrogen. The flue gas leaves at 700 K. a) Sketch a fully labelled schematic diagram of the system. b) Write a balanced chemical equation for the...

8.27 A fuel gas containing 95.0 mole% methane and the balance ethane is burned completely with 15.0% excess air. The stack gas leaves the furnace at 800.0°C and is cooled to 450.0°C in a waste-heat boiler, a heat exchanger in which heat lost by cooling gases is used to produce steam from liquid water for heating, power generation, or process applications. A. Take as a basis 100.0 mol of the fuel gas fed to the furnace. Calculate the amounts of...

A four- Stroke engine operates on methane with an equivalence ratio of 0.90. The air and fuel enter the engine at 298 K, and the exhaust is at 530'C. The heat rejected to the coolant is 350 MJ/Kmol of fuel. Under these conditions determine: a. The enthalpy of the exhaust combustion products. b. The specific work output of the engine, and c. The first law of efficiency of the engine.

The combustion of methane, CH4, releases 890.4 kj/mol of heat. That is, when one mole of methane is burned, 890.4 kj are give off to the surroundings. This means that the products have less energy stored in the bonds than the reactants. Thus, for the reaction: CH4(G) + 2 O (g) -> CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (I) deltaH= -890.4kj/mol. A) what is the enthalpy change when 2.00 mol of CH4 are burned? B)what is the enthalpy change when 22.4g...

In a laboratory experiment 24.239 g of methane is burned in air containing O2 to form gaseous CO2 and H2O. Calculate the final temperature in °C of the product mixture if the methane and air are both at an initial temperature of 1.3°C. Assume a stoichiometric ratio of methane to oxygen from the air, with air being 21% O2 by volume and the rest of the volume being N2 (c of CO2 = 57.2 J/molK; c of H2O(g) = 36.0...

Methane gas is burned completely with 30% excess air in a furnace operating at one atmosphere. Both the methane and air enter the furnace at 40ºC saturated with water vapor. The flue gas (furnace exhaust) leaves the furnace at 1000ºC. The flue gas then passes through a heat exchanger and emerges at 60ºC. If 260 mole/sec of methane fed to the furnace, how much heat is lost from the furnace, and how much heat is transferred in the heat exchanger?...
