Answer:

0.1113 mol

Explanation:

Data Given:

no. of atoms of CH₄= 6.70 x 10²² atoms

no. of moles of methane (CH₄) = ?

Solution:

we will find no. of moles of methane (CH₄)

Formula used

no. of moles = no. of atoms / Avogadro's number

Where

Avogadro's number = 6.022 x 10²³

Put values in above equation

no. of moles = 6.70 x 10²² atoms / 6.022 x 10²³ (atoms/mol)

no. of moles = 0.1113 mol

So,

There are 0.1113 moles of methane.

It is proposed to use Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) to fuel spark-ignition engines. A typical sample of the fuel on a volume basis

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The overall balanced combustion reaction is written as :

$0.7C_3H_8 \ + \ 0.05C_4H_{10} \ + \ 0.25 C_3H_6 \ + \ x(O_2 \ + \ 3.76N_2) ---> 3.05CO_2 \ + \ 3.8H_2O \ + \ 18.612N_2$

$(F/A)_{stoichiometric} = 0.0424$

$(A/F)_{stoichiometric} = 23.562$

the higher heating values $(HHV)_f$ per unit mass of LPG = 49.9876 MJ/kg

the lower heating values $(LHV)_f$ per unit mass of LPG = 46.4933 MJ/kg

Explanation:

The stoichiometric equation can be expressed as :

$0.7C_3H_8 \ + \ 0.05C_4H_{10} \ + \ 0.25 C_3H_6 \ + \ x(O_2 \ + \ 3.76N_2) ---> aCO_2 \ + \ bH_2O \ + \ cN_2$

Now, equating the coefficient of carbon; we have:

(0.7×3)+(0.05×4)+(0.25×3) = a

a = 3.05

Also, Equating the coefficient of hydrogen : we have:

(0.7 × 8) +(0.05 × 10) + ( 0.25 × 6) = 2 b

2b = 7.6

b = 3.8

Equating the coefficient of oxygen

2x = 2a + b

$x = \frac{2a+b}{2} \\ \\ x = \frac{2(3.05)+3.8}{2} \\ \\ x = 4.95$

Equating the coefficient of Nitrogen

$c = 3.76x \\ \\ c = 3.76 *4.95 \\ \\ c = 18.612$

Therefore, The overall balanced combustion reaction can now be written as :

$0.7C_3H_8 \ + \ 0.05C_4H_{10} \ + \ 0.25 C_3H_6 \ + \ x(O_2 \ + \ 3.76N_2) ---> 3.05CO_2 \ + \ 3.8H_2O \ + \ 18.612N_2$

Now; To determine the stoichiometric F/A and A/F ratios; we have:

$(F/A)_{stoichiometric} = \frac{n_f}{n_a } \\ \\ (F/A)_{stoichiometric} = \frac{1}{4.95*(1+3.76)} \\ \\ (F/A)_{stoichiometric} = 0.0424$

$(A/F)_{stoichiometric} = \frac{n_a}{n_f } \\ \\ (A/F)_{stoichiometric} = \frac{4.95*(1+3.76)}{1} \\ \\ (A/F)_{stoichiometric} = 23.562$

What are the higher and lower heating values per unit mass of LPG?

Let calculate the molecular mass of the fuel in order to determine their mass fraction of the fuel components.

Molecular mass of the fuel $M_f = (0.7*M_{C_3H_5} ) + (0.05 *M_{C_4H_{10}}) + (0.25*M _{C_3H_6})$

= 30.8 + 2.9 + 10.5

= 44.2 kg/mol

Mass fraction of the fuel components can now be calculated as :

$m_{C_3H_8} = \frac{30.8}{44.2} \\ \\ m_{C_3H_8} = 0.7 \\ \\ \\ m_{C_4H_{10}} = \frac[2.9}{44.2} \\ \\ m_{C_4H_{10}} = 0.06 \\ \\ \\ m_{C_3H_6} = \frac{10.5}{44.2} \\ \\ m_{C_3H_6} = 0.24$

Finally; calculating the higher heating values $(HHV)_f$ per unit mass of LPG; we have:

$(HHV)_f=(0.7 * HHV_{C_3H_8}) + (0.06 *HHV_{C_4H_{10}})+(0.24*HHV_{C_3H_6} \\ \\ (HHV)_f=(0.7*50.38)+(0.06*49.56)+(0.24*48.95) \\ \\ (HHV)_f=49.9876 \ MJ/kg$

calculating the lower heating values $(LHV)_f$ per unit mass of LPG; we have:

$(LHV)_f = (HHV)_f - \delta H_w \\ \\ (LHV)_f = (HHV)_f - [\frac{m_w}{m_f}h_{vap}] \\ \\ (LHV)_f = 49.9876 \ MJ/kg - [\frac{3.8*18}{44.2}*2.258 \ MJ/kg] \\ \\ (LHV)_f = 46.4933 \ M/kg$
