A sample of propane (C3H8)(C3H8) is placed in a closed vessel together with an amount of O2O2 that is 3.10 times the amount needed to completely oxidize the propane to CO2CO2 and H2OH2O at constant temperature. Calculate the mole fraction of each component in the resulting mixture after oxidation, assuming that the H2OH2O is present as a gas
