Question: A coal analyzing ( by weight ) 6 5 . 4 % C , 5 . 3 % H , 0 . 6 % S

A coal analyzing (by weight)65.4%C,5.3%H,0.6%S,1.1%N,18.5%O, and 9.1% ash is burned so that all combustible is burned out of the ash. The flue gas analyzes (by mole)13.00%CO2 and SO2,0.76%CO,6.17%O2,0.87%H2, and 79.20%N2. Calculate
a. Pounds of coal fired per 100lbmol of dry flue gas
b. Ratio of moles of total combustion gases to moles of dry air supplied
c. Total moles of water vapor in the stack gas per 100lbm of coal if the entering air is dry
d. Percent excess air
 A coal analyzing (by weight)65.4%C,5.3%H,0.6%S,1.1%N,18.5%O, and 9.1% ash is burned so
