Natural gas with an analysis as follows
CO2 = 0.4% CH4 = 97.3%, N2 = 2.3%, is burned in a furnace. The Orsat analysis of the flue gases shows:
CO2-8.5%, 02-5.6 %, CO = 0.1% and the rest is Nitrogen. Find the percentage of excess air supplied to
the furnace.

They make the following claims. 1. The pressure inside N₂-filled tires does not rise or fall with temperature changes. 2.

Nitrogen is not very reactive, and moisture and O₂ in air cause corrosion that shortens tire life by 25-30% Evaluate the claim as a whole. Check all that apply. Claim passes falsifiability test.
