The correct option is D xC2H6=0.6707, xC2H4=0.3293,
For O2, PV=nRT
or, 1×40=n×0.0821×400
or, n=1.218
C2H6(g)+72O2(g)→2CO2(g)+3H2O(l)
C2H4(g)+3O2(g)→2CO2(g)+3H2O(l)
Let the moles of ethane be a.
Volume of O2 required by ethane =7/2a
Volume of ethane =(1.218−a)
Volume of O2 required by ethene=3(1.218−a)
Given,
72a+3(1.218−a)=13032 (moles of oxygen)
or 72a+3.654−3a=4.0625
or a=0.817(moles of ethane)
∴1.218−a=1.218−0.817 =0.401(moles of ethene)
Mole fraction of ethane =0.8171.218=0.6707
Mole fraction of ethene=1−0.6707=0.3293
