A gaseous fuel mixture contains 23.1% methane (CH,), 43.4% ethane (CHe) and the rest propane (C3H3) by volume. Part A When the fuel mixture contained in a 1.46 L tank, stored at 745 mmHg and 298 K, undergoes complete combustion, how much heat is emitted? (Assume that the water produced by the combustion is in the gaseous state.)
