Part D: Gases (Outcomes BI 4, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, BI 1, S4)

Determine the total moles of gases formed from the complete combustion of 1.0 kilogram of your fuel.

Assume that water is in the gas phase.

o Calculate the mole fraction of each gas produced and their partial pressures (in atm) if the total

pressure is 760. mm Hg.

If this combustion happens at STP, what volume will these gases occupy?

o

Is this volume accurate? As this gas is combusting will it really stay at standard temperature?

What is the flame temperature of your compound? (Research this!)

*Note: if you cannot find this temperature, use 3000.ºC.

Calculate the final volume of gas produced from 1.0 kg of fuel using the flame temperature.

o Think to the gas laws in Module 5. Assume constant pressure.
