A fuel containing 75 % ethane and 25 % propane is burned with dry air. 
All the H2 burns to H2O and the CO2 to CO ratio is 10:1.  15 % excess air is supplied. 

Calculate:

a) moles stack gas/ moles fuel                                   

b.1) orsat analysis of stack gas [%composition of CO2]
      
b.2) orsat analysis of stack gas [%composition of CO] 

 c.1) complete analysis of stack gas [%composition of CO2]      
                     
c.2) complete analysis of stack gas [%composition of CO]      

d) m3 dry air 28 degrees C, 765 mm Hg/kg mol fuel
