Assignment Problem 1.2: A liquefied gas mixture has the following molar composition:
93.5% CH4, 4.6% C2H6, 1.2% C3H8, and 0.7% CO2. Calculate:
a) Average molecular weight of the LNG mixture (Ans: 0.017 kg/mol)
(b) Weight fraction of CH4 in the mixture (Ans: 0.871).
(c) The gas mixture is heated to 300 K and 150 kPa, and vaporizes completely.
Estimate the density of the gas mixture under these conditions (Ans: 1.022 kg/m3)
Assignment Problem 1.3: A gas stored in a 30 m3 container at 340 K and 101.3 kPa is
saturated with water vapor. Partial pressure of water vapour is 27.35 kPa. Determine
the following of the gas mixture:
