17 A liquid fuel mixture that is 40% octane (C 8H18) and 60% decane (C10H22)
by mass is burned completely with 10% excess air at 25C, 1 atm, 80%
relative humidity.
a) Determine the equivalent hydrocarbon composition, C aHb, of a fuel
that would have the same carbon-hydrogen ratio on a mass basis
as the fuel mixture.
b) If the combustion products are cooled to 25C at a pressure of 1
atm, determine the amount of water vapor that condenses, in kg
per kg of fuel.
