A burner burns a fuel gas with the following composition by volume, CO2 – 3% H2 – 40% O2 – 1% C6H14 – 10% CO – 33% N2 – 6% C6H6 – 1% CH2CH2 – 6% The fuel is fed to the burner at 300C and 1 atm. It is burned with 20% excess air at 300C and 1 atm. Assuming that combustion is complete, calculate the following: a. Moles of theoretical air per 100 mole of fuel b. %N2 in the Orsat Analysis c. % CO2  in the stack gas d. % water in the stack gas e. L of air per mole of fuel

A burner burns a fuel gas with the following composition by volume, CO2 – 3% H2 – 40% O2 – 1% C6H14 – 10% CO – 33% N2 – 6% C6H6 – 1% CH2CH2 – 6% The fuel is fed to the burner at 300C and 1 atm. It is burned with 20% excess air at 300C and 1 atm. Assuming that combustion is complete, calculate the following:

a. Moles of theoretical air per 100 mole of fuel

b. %Nin the Orsat Analysis

c. % CO in the stack gas

d. % water in the stack gas
