    MIDTERM QUIZ #2
    Solve each problem as neatly as possible and show complete solution.
    Round everything to four decimal places and box all final answers. No units,
    no points.

    1. Bottled gas, composed of propane and butane is burned in a furnace giving a stack gas
    containing 8.62% CO2, 1.38% CO, 6.45% O2, and 83.55% N2. Compute for: (a) % excess air;
    (b) Composition of the bottled gas; (c) volume of air in m3 if the air is saturated with water
    vapor, T = 28°C, P=758 mmHg; (d) volume of stack gas, T = 350°C, P = 760 mmHg.
    2. A pure saturated hydrocarbon is burnt with excess air. Orsat analysis of the stack gas
    shows 7.9% CO2, 1.18% CO, 0.24% H2, 5.25% O2 and 85.43% N2. Air is substantially dry. The
    stack gases leave at 450°C, 750 mmHg pressure. Calculate: (a) % excess air; (b) formula
    of the hydrocarbon; (c) volume of the combustion gas per kg of the fuel.
    3. A mixture of a saturated hydrocarbon and N2 is burned in excess air supplied at 25⁰C, 740
    torrs with 90% relative humidity. An orsat analysis of the stack gas shows 7.6% CO2, 2.28%
    CO, 1.14% H2, 6.03% O2 and 82.95% N2 with a dew point of 53.46⁰C. The stack gases leave
    at 300⁰C, 765 mmHg with a volume ratio of 2.049 m3 stack gas /m3 of wet air. Establish your
    basis as 1000 m3 of wet air. Calculate: (a) % excess air; (b) formula of the hydrocarbon;
    (c) %volume analysis of the hydrocarbon fuel.
    4. A furnace is fired with fuel oil with a partial analysis of 7.6% S and 2.8% N. Orsat analysis of
    the stack gas shows 9.44% CO2, 1.19% CO, 0.4% SO2, 0.47% H2, 6.8% O2 and 81.7% N2. Air
    supplied is at 23°C, 755 mmHg and 85% RH. Establish your basis as 100 kmols of dry stack
    gas. Calculate: (a) % excess air; (b) analysis of the fuel oil; (c) m3 air/ kg fuel.
    5. A pure saturated hydrocarbon is burned in excess air. Air is supplied at the rate of 284.14
    m3/kmol of the hydrocarbon. Air enters at 30⁰C, 1 atm and saturated with water vapor.
    Partial Orsat analysis of the stack gas shows 8.68% CO2, and 1.3% CO. Establish your basis
    as 100 kmols of the hydrocarbon. Calculate: (a) % excess air; (b) Formula of the
    hydrocarbon; (c) Complete Orsat analysis of the stack gas.
