Methane is burned with air in a continuous steady-state combustion reactor to yield a mixture of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and water. The feed to the reactor contains 12 mole% CH4,25% O2, and 63% N2. The percentage conversion of methane is 80.0%, and the gas leaving the reactor contains 4 mol CO2/mol CO. Please write down the reactions, draw the flowchart and write everything on it. Carry out a degree-of-freedom analysis on the process. Then calcute the molar composition of the product stream.
