,59. A fuel gas is known to contain methane, ethane, and carbon monoxide. A sample of the gas is charged into an initially evacuated 2.000-liter vessel at 25°C and 2323 mm Hg absolute. The vessel is weighed before and after being charged, and the mass difference is found to be 4.929 g. Next, the higher heating value of the gas is determined in a calorimeter to be 841.9 kJ/mol. (a) Calculate the molar composition of the fuel gas. (b) Calculate the lower heating value of the gas. ,59. A fuel gas is known to contain methane, ethane, and carbon monoxide.
