LPG has 60% propane and 40% butane: 10 litres of this mixture is burnt. Calculate the volume of carbon dioxide added to atmosphere.

\[\ce{C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O}\]

\[\ce{2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O}\]

उत्तर

Ratio of propane and Butane in mixture 

= 60 : 40

= 3 : 2

Ratio in 10 litres mixture = `3/5 xx 10 and 2/5 xx 10`

= 6 lit : 4 lit

\[\ce{C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O}\]
1 vol                       3 vol

1 volume of propane produces CO2 = 3 volumes

∴ 6 litres produces CO2 = 3 x 6

= 18 litres   ...(i)

\[\ce{2C4H10 + 13O2 → 8CO2 + 10H2O}\]
2 vol                              8 vol

2 litres of Butane produces CO2 = 8 litres

∴ 4 litres produce CO2 = `(8 xx 4)/2`

= 16 litres   ...(ii)

∴ CO2 added to atmosphere = 18 + 16

= 34 litres.

State Gay-Lussac’s law of combining volumes.


When gases react their volumes bear a simple ratio to each other, under the same conditions of temperature and pressure. Who proposed this gas law?


What volume of oxygen would be required for complete combustion of 100L of ethane according to the following equation?
2C2H6 + 7O2 → 4CO2 + 6H2O


Calcium carbide is used for the artificial ripening of fruits. Actually the fruit ripens because of the heat evolved while calcium carbide reacts with the moisture. During this reaction calcium hydroxide and acetylene gas are formed. If 200 cm3 of acetylene is formed from a certain mass of calcium carbide, find the volume of oxygen required and carbon dioxide formed during the complete combustion. The combustion reaction can be represented as below.

\[\ce{2C2H2_{(g)} + 5O2_{(g)}-> 4CO2_{(g)} + 2H2O_{(g)}}\]


Propane burns in air according to the following equation:

\[\ce{C3H8 + 5O2 -> 3CO2 + 4H2O}\]

What volume of air (containing 20% O2 by volume) will be required to burn completely 10 cm3 of methane and acetylene?

\[\ce{CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O}\]

\[\ce{2C2H2 + 5O2 -> 4CO2 + 2H2O}\]
