Find the partial pressure of the octane and specific volume


Problem

1. In a car engine, gasoline (assume octane, C8H18) is evaporated and then mixed with air in a ratio of 1:15 by mass. In the cylinder the mixture is at 750 kPa, 650 K when the spark fires. For that time, find the partial pressure of the octane and the specific volume of the mixture.

2. A 100-m3 storage tank with fuel gases is at 20?C, 100 kPa containing a mixture of acetylene (C2H2), propane (C3H8), and butane (C4H10). A test shows that the partial pressure of the C2H2 is 15 kPa and that of the C3H8 is 65 kPa. How much mass is there of each component?

The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
