Assuming that the combustion formula is
CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2<span>,
That means for every 1 molecule of methane(CH4) there will be one molecule of carbon dioxide(</span>CO2) produced. Methane molecular weight 16, carbon dioxide molecular weight is 44. Then the percent yield should be:
1 * (0.374/ 16) /(0.983/44)= 0.374*44/ 0.983 * 16= 104.6%
You sure the number is correct? Percent yield should not exceed 100%
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. This is referred to as interia . If an unbalanced force such as another vehilce hits another, than a persons air bag will then be active . Because when a car is in motion at a constant speed, that’s what will happen when an unbalanced force acts apon it .
