Problem #6. You have 5000 liters of pure propane at 350K and 1.3atm. You are
burning this propane in air with excess oxygen. The air contains 21mol%O2 and the
rest N2. The N2 does not react in this reaction but should be included in the SPICEY
table. At the end of the reaction, you find that the mol fraction of O2 is equal to 0.035.
a.(3) Write out the chemical equation and balance it.
b.(3) Calculate the moles of propane entering the reactor.
c.(3) Assume complete combustion of propane. Write out the SPICEY table.
d.(3) Calculate the number of moles of oxygen entering the reactor.
e.(3) Calculate the fractional excess oxygen added to the reactor.
f.(3) Calculate the final mol fractions of each component.
