Problem- The water gas reaction is a source of hydrogen passing steam over hot carbon produces a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen:
H2O (g) + C(s) <----> CO(g) + H2(g)
The value of Kc for the reaction at 1000 C is 3.00*10-2
a. Calculate the equilibrium partial pressures of the products and reactants if PH2O= .442 atm and PCO = 5.000 atm at the start of the reaction. Assume the carbon is in excess.
b. Determine the equilibrium partial pressures of H2O, CO, and H2 after CO and H2 at .074 atm are add to the equilibrium mixture in part A
I need proficient help to working out this problem
