Answer 2

Water gas is a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (not water). It is produced when steam is passed over red-hot coke (carbon). C + H2O = CO + H2. Water gas is so named because water (steam) is the usual source for its production.Both CO and H2 are inflammable gases, and so water gas is used as a fuel.Oct 7, 2017
