A pure, low molecular weight hydrocarbon gas is burnt in a furnace giving a flue gas containing
10.8% CO 2 , 3.8% O 2 and the remainder nitrogen. Calculate the atomic ratio, H/C, and from this
the formula of the fuel. Note that this analysis is on a dry basis.
2nd part:
Calculate the analysis of the flue gases resulting from the combustion of ethane with 100%
excess air. Give the results on a dry basis.

A mixture of oxygen and nitrogen gases is maintained in a 7.17 L flask at a pressure of 1.53 atm and a temperature of 41°C. If the gas mixture contains 8.88 grams of oxygen, the number of grams of nitrogen in the mixture is g.
A mixture of methane and argon gases, in a 6.68 L flask at 43 °C, contains 1.35 grams of methane and 5.20 grams of argon. The partial pressure of argon in the flask is atm and the total pressure in the flask is atm.

At equilibrium, the concentrations in this system were found to be [N2]=[O2]=0.200 M[N2]=[O2]=0.200 M and [NO]=0.400 M.[NO]=0.400 M.
N2(g)+O2(g)−⇀↽−2NO(g)N2(g)+O2(g)↽−−⇀2NO(g)
If more NONO is added, bringing its concentration to 0.700 M,0.700 M, what will the final concentration of NONO be after equilibrium is re‑established?
