Question

A certain coal is pulverized and burnt in a burner. Analysis of coal showed
70% C, 10.7% ash and 1.2% N. The refuse is substantially free of
combustible. A sample of the flue gas collected and analyzed in an orsat
apparatus over mercury contains 8.3% CO2, 3.32% CO, 0.32% SO2, 3.32%
H2 and 9.53% O2. Air supplied is at 30 deg C, 1 atm and saturated with water.
Calculate: 

c) m^3 flue gas (250  degree C, 1 atm)/kg coal

d) mg SO2 per normal cubic meter
