//(13.12) Determine the chemical exergy of liquid octane at 25C, 1 atm, in kJ/kg. (a) Using Eq. 13.36, evaluate the chemical exergy for an environment consisting of a gas phase at 25C, 1 atm obeying the ideal gas model with the following composition on a molar basis: N2, 75.67%; O2, 20.35%; H2O, 3.12%; CO2, 0.03%; other, 0.83%. (b) Evaluate the chemical exergy using Eq. 13.44b and standard chemical exergies from Table A-26 (Model II).
