Question: A sample of methane gas ( CH 4 ) having a volume of 2 . 8 0 L at T = 2 5 . 0

A sample of methane gas (CH4) having a volume of 2.80 L at T =25.0\deg C and PCH4=1.65 atm is added to a 35.0-L reactor filled with oxygen (O2) at T =25.0\deg C and P =1.25 atm.
a) Calculate the partial pressure of CH4 and O2 in the 35.0-L reactor (T =25.0\deg C).
The mixture is then ignited to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O), and the temperature in the reactor is stable at 110.0\deg C.
b) Write down the chemical reaction of combustion
c) Find the partial pressure of CO2, H2O and O2 in the 35.0-L reactor.
