a) A mixture of CO(g), H₂(g), and CH₂OH(g) at 500 K with partial pressures of 10 bar, 1 bar, and 0.1 bar, respectively, is passed over a catalyst. Given that A,Gº=21.21 kJ/mol for the formation of CH3OH(g) from CO(g) and H₂(g), can more methanol be formed? Justify your answer. b) If the partial pressures of CO(g) and H₂(g) were adjusted to 1 bar and 10 bar respectively while all other conditions are retained, can more methanol be formed? Justify your answer. c) What would be the equilibrium constant of the reaction at 500K? d) If a gas stream of equimolar amounts of CO(g) and H₂(g) instead is passed over a catalyst at 1 bar and 500K, what would be the extent of reaction at equilibrium? e) To attain a more complete reaction the pressure is raised to 100 bar and 2 mol of hydrogen is used per mole of CO while a mole of nitrogen is added. What is the equilibrium extent of reaction?
