I think this is learned in chemistry do you have any notes that can help
<em>A: When burning Sulfur, Sulfur Dioxide is released. Having more Oxygen available provides more reactive potential for the burning Sulfur, making it burn much more fiercely. In water, the Sulfur Dioxide forms Sulfurous acid. Added: 12 years ago.</em>

Combustion equation of n-hexane:
2C₆H₁₄ + 19O₂ → 12CO₂ + 14H₂O
a)
Assuming we have 100 moles of air,
Oxygen = 20.9 moles
n-hexane required = 20.9/19 x 2
= 2.2 moles
LFL = Half of stoichometric amount = 2.2 / 2 = 1.1
LFL n-hexane = 1.1%
b)
1.1 volume percent required for LFL
1.1% x 1
= 0.0011 m³ of n-hexane required
