1. 2H2 + O2 = 2H2O

100 x 0.96 = 96 kmols H2.

96/20 x 0.68= 70,5882353 kmols O2.

4 kmols H2O.

2. 2CO + O2 = 2CO2

2H2 + O2 = 2H2O

CH4 + 2O2 = CO2 2+ 2H2O

C2H6 + 2.5O2 = CO2 + 3H2O

50/2= 25 O2. 50 CO2

30 /2= 15 O2. 30 H2O.

5x2 = 10 O2. 5 CO2 and 10 H2O.

5x2 = 10 O2. 5 CO2 and 10 H2O.

25+15+10+10=60 kmols O2

60/0.5 = 120. 120 + 6 = 126 O2
