Question
Using the relevant data in Table 2.11, calculate the approximate volume in cubic feet of gaseous methane that is generated when each ton of $\mathrm{LNG}$ is released from its transport vessel.
Step 1
For this calculation, we will assume that 1 ton of LNG is approximately equivalent to 1,000 kg. Show more…

The "Chemistry Put to Work" box on pipelines in Section $10.5$ mentions that the total deliverability of natural gas (methane, $\mathrm{CH}_{4}$ ) to the various regions of the United States is on the order of $2.7 \times 10^{12} \mathrm{~L}$ per day, measured at STP. Calculate thetotal enthalpy change for combustion of this quantity of methane. (Note: Less than this amount of methane is actually combusted daily. Some of the delivered gas is passed through to other regions.)

The methane from the landfills, Problem 10.70 , is saturated with water. What volume of "wet" methane would you have to collect at $20.0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and 742 torr to be sure that the sample contains $244 \mathrm{~mL}$ of dry methane (also at 742 torr $) ?$
