(b) Calculate the temperature of the product mixture if the methane and air are both at an initial temperature of 0.0°C. Assume a stoichiometric ratio of methane to oxygen from the air, with air being 21% O₂ by volume (c of CO₂ = 57.2 J/mol·K; c of H₂O(g) = 36.0 J/mol·K; c of N₂ = 30.5 J/mol·K).

Temperature of the product mixture is 10314.79 K

Given Data,

Mass = 37.196 g

Temperature = - 0.2°C

Given reaction is shown as:

CH₄ + 2O₂ →CO₂ + 2H₂O

Hence,

Moles of CH₄ burned = Mass of CH₄/ Molar mass of CH₄

= 37.196g/16.0491g

= 2.32 mol

Now,

moles of O₂ needed = 2.32 × 2

= 4.64 moles

Moles of CO₂ produced = 2.32 moles

Moles of H₂O produced = 2.32 × 2

= 4.64 moles

Now,

Given

Formation of CO₂= 393.5 × 10³ J/m

Formation of H₂O = 285.8×10³ J/m

Hence,

Heat absorbed by methane + heat absorbed by oxygen = Formation of CO₂+Formation of H₂O

Now,

2.32×35.14 ×dT + 4.64×29.214×dT = 2.32× 393.5 × 10³ + 4.64× 285.8×10³

81.52dT+135.55dT = 2239032

dT = 10314.79 K

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that ,Temperature of the product mixture is 10314.79 K.
