In a gobar gas plant, gobar gas is formed by bacterial fermentation of animal refuse. It mainly contains methane and its heat of combustion is `-899kJ mol^(-1)` according to followinf equation:
`CH_(4) +2O_(2) rarr CO_(2)+2H_(2)O , DeltaH =- 809 kJ`
How much gobar gas would have to be produced per day for a small village of `50` families, it it is assumed that each family requires `20000 kJ` of enegry per day? The methane content in gobar gas is `80%` by mass.

The methane content in gobar gas is 80% by mass.

Gobar gas obtained by bacterial fermentation of animal refuse contains mainly methane. The heat of combustion of methane to CO_2 and water (gas) is given by CH_4(g) + 2O_2(g) to CO_2(g) + 2H_2O (g) + 809 kJ . How much gobar gas would have to be produced per day for a small village community of 100 families, if we assume that each family has to be supplied 20,000 kJ of energy per day to meet all its needs and that the methane content in gobar gas is 80% by weight?
