A pure saturated hydrocarbon is burned in excess air. Air is supplied at the rate of 284.14 m²/kgmol of the hydrocarbon. Air enters at 30°C, 1 atm and saturated with water vapor. Partial orsat analysis of the stack gas shows 8.68% CO, and 1.3% CO. Calculate: a) % excess air (15%) b) Formula of the hydrocarbon (CH,) c) Complete orsat analysis of the stack gas (3.65% O,, 86.37%N,)
