Question 2(20 pts). Ethane is mixed with oxygen gas which is coming from a storage tank in which the temperature is -18, before this mixture is sent to a combustion chamber. The volumetric flowrate of the oxygen gas which is coming from the storage tank is 0.19 m3/hr. In the combustion chamber the ethane/oxygen mixture is burned with 100% excess air and the exhaust gas from the chamber has a volumetric flowrate of 2593 m3/hr at standard conditions. The composition of the exhaust gas is 9.89 mole % O2,74.41 mole % N2,5.65 mole % CO2,0.63 mole % CO and 9.42 mole % H2O. Calculate the pressure (kPa) inside the oxygen gas storage tank by using the van der Waals equation of state.
