Methane and oxygen react in the presence of a catalyst to form formaldehyde. In a parallel reaction, methane is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water.

Methane and oxygen react in the presence of a catalyst to form formaldehyde. In a parallel reaction,
methane is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water.
CH4(g)+O2(g)HCHO(g)+H2O(g)
CH4(g)+2O2(g)CO2(g)+2H2O(g)
a) Methane is fed with 40% excess air at 50C and 40% relative humidity. If the mole fraction of CO2 in
the effluent gases is 0.025mol CO2mol gas, and there is no remaining CH4, determine the composition of
the reaction product.
Can you help me how to figure out how to find for mol of humid air and yH2O? Thanks so much.
