A low grade fuel oil containing approximately 80% C, 10% H, 4% 0, 4% N, and 2% S is burned in a furnace that is well designed and well operated giving a combustion gas with a partial Orsat analysis of 10.92% CO2, and 1.85% CO. The molar ratio of CO to H₂ in the flue gas is 5:1. Calculate: a) % excess O₂ b) m³ air (28°C, 740 mmHg)/kg fuel oil c) m³ flue gas (300°C, 762 mmHg)/kg fuel oil
