Question: Problem 2 ( 3 0 points on 1 0 0 - point scale ) - A steady - flow combustion chamber is supplied with CO

Problem 2(30 points on 100-point scale)- A steady-flow combustion chamber is supplied with
CO gas at 560R and 16 psia at a rate of 12.5ft3min and with oxygen (O2) at 537R and 16 psia
at a rate of 0.7lbmmin. The combustion products leave the combustion chamber at 3600R and
16 psia. If the combustion gases consist of CO2,CO, and O2, determine the following:
a) Verify the constant x is 0.9966 by using the equilibrium constant.
b) Rate of heat transfer from the combustion chamber, in Btumin.
The chemical reaction is defined as follows:
CO+0.657O2xCO2+(1-x)CO+(0.657-0.5x)O2
PLEASE ALSO PUT THE ASSUMPTIONS AS WELL!!
