Find the volume of air required for complete combustion of 1 m3 of acetylene and the weight of air necessary for the combustion of 1 kg of fuel?

Find the volume of air required for complete combustion of 1 m3 of acetylene and the weight of air necessary for the combustion of 1 kg of fuel? Correct Answer 11.9 m3 and 13.378 kg

The reaction involved in this reaction will be- 2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O Therefore air required per m3 of C2H2 = 2.5 × (100/21) = 11.9 m3 Now oxygen supplied per kg of fuel = (162/52) Therefore, air supplied per kg of C2H2 = (160/52) × (100/23) = 13.378 kg.
