The mixture of hydrogen, methane and co gases under normal conditions has a density of 0.857g per dm3. 4.52 volumes of air are required for complete combustion of one volume of the mixture. Determine the composition of the mixture in percent. Can someone hel pe

Where have you got stuck? Can you, for instance, write individual equations for each of the reactions going on?

Oh am i suposed to use 21 percent o2 in air?
CH4 + O2 ---> CO2 + 2H2O
2CO + O2 --->2CO2
2H2 + O2---> 2H2O

Yes.

Hint: you have to use information given to build a system of equations where your unknowns are percentages of gases in the mixture.

Can i calculate V of O2 and make proportion for each reaction but actually i don`t know how to calculate this and what to use for 0.857 g per dm3

Burning of methane is wrong.

Assume fraction of gases to be x, y, z. If these are fractions - what is their sum?

Assume there is 1L of the mixture - can you express its mass using x, y, z? how is it related to the mixture density?

can I solve without the system in some way and how to use the data of 4.52 air volume. does that mean 4.52 * 0.21 for each equation
