Chapter 1, Problem 1.4NP

A sample of propane $\left({\text{C}}_{\text{3}}{\text{H}}_{\text{8}}\right)$ is placed in a closed vessel together with an amount of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}$ that is 2.15 times the amount needed to completely oxidize the propane to ${\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}$ and ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ at constant temperature. Calculate the mole fraction of each component in the resulting mixture after oxidation, assuming that the ${\text{H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ is present as a gas.
