Interesting problem. Thanks for posting.
C2H2 + (3/2)02 ====> H2O + 2CO2
CH4 + 2O2 =====> 2H2O + CO2
The molar mass of C2H2 = 2*12 + 2*1 = 26
The molar mass of CH4 = 1*12 + 4*1 = 16
The number of moles of C2H2 = x
The number of moles of CH4 = y
26x + 16y = 230.9 grams
For water we get (from the C2H2). Water has a molar mass of 2*1 + 16 = 18
x*18 See the balanced equation to see what it is the same number of moles as C2H2
From the methane we get
y*18
2*y* 18. Again see the balanced equation to see where that 2 came from.
18x + 36y is the total amount of water.
Now for the CO2. CO2 has a molar mass of 12 + 2*16 = 44
From C2H2 we get 2*44*x = 88x grams of CO2
From CH4 we get 1*y*44 grams of CO2
88x + 44y for CO2
Now we total to get the grand total of water and CO2
18x + 44y + 88x + 44y = 972.7 grams total.
106x + 88y = 972.7
Two equations, two unknowns, we should be able to solve this problem
26x + 16y = 230.9
106x + 88y = 972.7
I'm not going to go through the math unless you request me to do so.
x = 8.03 moles
y = 1.38 moles
The initial amount of C2H2 was 8.03 * 26 = 208.78
The initial amount of CH4 was 16*1.38 = 22.08
The total (as a check is 230.86 which is pretty close to the given amount.
So Methane's mass in the initial givens was 22.08 grams.
Explanation:
The 2019 water crisis in Chennai has made us realize the importance of saving water more than ever. Water, as we all know, is a finite resource without which our planet would be a barren wasteland. Today with our increasing population it would be logical to say that our water consumption has also increased. And with increasing demand and lesser supply, water scarcity arises. Our ancestors who had foreseen the potential dangers of water scarcity had developed methods to conserve water that was suited for the varied terrain of the Tamil-speaking kingdoms.
Traditional Rainwater Conservation methods of Tamil Nadu
Eri
There are no perennial rivers in Tamil Nadu except the Thamirabharani River which flows through Thirunelveli district. And so, several hundred years ago a simple system was devised to utilize the rainwater to the fullest. An Eri or tank system is one of the oldest forms of water conservation systems in India. Many Eris are still in use in Tamil Nadu and play an active role in irrigation. They act as water reservoirs and flood control systems. They prevent soil erosion, recharge groundwater, and prevent wastage of runoff water during heavy rainfall.
Kudimaramathu
Kudimaramathu is one of the old traditional practice of stakeholders participating in the maintenance and management of irrigation systems. During earlier days, citizens of a village used to actively participate in maintaining the water bodies of their village by deepening and widening the lakes and ponds and restoring the water bodies back to their original form. The silt, rich in nutrients, collected in the process would be used by the farmers themselves in their field. A sense of collective ownership ensured the continued survival of the water bodies.

Answer : The molarity after a reaction time of 5.00 days is, 0.109 M
Explanation :
The integrated rate law equation for second order reaction follows:
![k=\frac{1}{t}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{[A]_o}\right)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bt%7D%5Cleft%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%5BA%5D%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%5BA%5D_o%7D%5Cright%29)
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = time taken = 5.00 days
[A] = concentration of substance after time 't' = ?
![[A]_o](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA%5D_o)
= Initial concentration = 0.110 M
Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:
![9.7\times 10^{-6}=\frac{1}{5.00}\left (\frac{1}{[A]}-\frac{1}{(0.110)}\right)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=9.7%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-6%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B5.00%7D%5Cleft%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%5BA%5D%7D-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%280.110%29%7D%5Cright%29)
![[A]=0.109M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BA%5D%3D0.109M)
Hence, the molarity after a reaction time of 5.00 days is, 0.109 M
