The mass of carbon per kg of flue gas is given by
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The mass of carbon, contained in 1 kg of flue or exhaust gases, may be calculated from the mass of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide present in them.
We know that 1 kg of carbon produces 11/3 kg of carbon dioxide. Hence 1 kg of carbon dioxide will contain 3/11 kg of carbon. Also, 1 kg of carbon produces 7/3 kg of carbon monoxide, hence 1 kg of carbon monoxide will contain 3/7 kg of carbon.
Mass of carbon per kg of flue gas is given by:
3/11 CO2 + 3/7 CO.

The mass of carbon, contained in 1 kg of flue or exhaust gases, may be calculated from the mass of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide present in them.
We know that 1 kg of carbon produces 11 / 3 kg of carbon dioxide. Hence 1 kg of carbon dioxide will contain 3 / 11 kg of carbon. Also, 1 kg of carbon produces 7/3 kg of carbon monoxide, hence 1 kg of carbon monoxide will contain 3/7 kg of carbon.

I think the answer would be 3/11CO2 + 3/7CO.

@Biplab.
CO2 + CO = C is not balanced.
I think Balanced equation is CO2+2CO=3C+2O2.
CO2 + CO = C is not balanced.
I think Balanced equation is CO2+2CO=3C+2O2.
