Problem P. 4522. (March 2013)

P. 4522. News: Each saved cubic metre of natural gas protects the environment from the emission of 1.7 kg of carbon-dioxide gas. 97% of the natural gas is methane.

a) What is the temperature of the methane if 1.7 kg carbon-dioxide is emitted during the burning of 1 cubic metre of methane at normal pressure?

b) How many kg Oxygen is used and how much water vapour is gained?

c) By what amount is the calorific value of 1 cubic metre of methane smaller than its heat of combustion?
