Methanol (CH3OH) is produced commercially by the catalyzed reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen: CO(g)+2H2(g)←−→CH3OH(g). An equilibrium mixture in a 1.50 −L vessel is found to contain 7.17×10−2 mol CH3OH, 0.170 mol CO, and 0.301 mol H2 at 500 K. Part A Calculate Kc at this temperature.
n1=7.17e-2mol CH3OH
n2=0.170mol CO
n3=0.301 mol H2
V=1.50 l
According to the reaction given, Kc equation is:
where: [CH3OH]=n1/V ; [CO]=n2/V ; [H2]=n3/V
calculate Kc are requested, but to calculate Kp can use the procedure described in the image. Where it is written to the generic reaction: aA + bB ? cC + dD
