Answer:
0.74 grams of methane
Explanation:
The balanced equation of the combustion reaction of methane with oxygen is:
it is clear that 1 mol of CH₄ reacts with 2 mol of O₂.
firstly, we need to calculate the number of moles of both
for CH₄:
number of moles = mass / molar mass = (3.00 g) / (16.00 g/mol) = 0.1875 mol.
for O₂:
number of moles = mass / molar mass = (9.00 g) / (32.00 g/mol) = 0.2812 mol.
- it is clear that O₂ is the limiting reactant and methane will leftover.
using cross multiplication
1 mol of CH₄ needs → 2 mol of O₂
??? mol of CH₄ needs → 0.2812 mol of O₂
∴ the number of mol of CH₄ needed = (0.2812 * 1) / 2 = 0.1406 mol
so 0.14 mol will react and the remaining CH₄
mol of CH₄ left over = 0.1875 -0.1406 = 0.0469 mol
now we convert moles into grams
mass of CH₄ left over = no. of mol of CH₄ left over * molar mass
= 0.0469 mol * 16 g/mol = 0.7504 g
So, the right choice is 0.74 grams of methane
<u>Answer:</u> The fugacity coefficient of a gaseous species is 1.25
<u>Explanation:</u>
Fugacity coefficient is defined as the ratio of fugacity and the partial pressure of the gas. It is expressed as 
Mathematically,
Partial pressure of the gas is expressed as:
Putting this expression is above equation, we get:
where,
= fugacity coefficient of the gas
= fugacity of the gas = 25 psia
= mole fraction of the gas = 0.4
P = total pressure = 50 psia
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the fugacity coefficient of a gaseous species is 1.25
