question 53

Essay

Gaseous carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas can be used to prepare methanol (CH₃OH). Under equilibrium conditions at 427°C, the partial pressures of the components are as follows.
P_CO = 1.44 atm = 4.25 atm = 2.30 atm
What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the reaction in which one mole of methanol is produced?
