Question

An important step in the industrial production of hydrogen gas is the water gas shift reaction .used extensively at SASOL the reaction entails heating CO and H₂O
CO+H₂O→CO₂+H₂
At 500⁰C the equilibrium constant for this reaction is 3.9 . if the equilibrium partial pressure of CO and H₂O are both 0.1atm and that of CO₂ is 0.70atm the partial pressure of H₂ will be
A 3.9atm
B 0.70atm
C 0.056atm
D 0.10atm

Answer 1

3.9atm

Hope it helpful
