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.

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

J.T.R said:   8 years ago
No, the correct answer is 3/11 co2+ 3/7 co.

Daka Hitesh said:   9 years ago
The right answer is 3/11 CO2 and 3/7 CO.

Harvinder singh said:   1 decade ago
Right answer is 11/3 CO2 and 7/3 CO.

Mehul said:   8 years ago
Right answer is 3/11CO2 + 3/7CO.
