Coal (solid carbon plus a collection of impurities) can be
converted to a mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas by the
following process:
At an industrial plant, a mixture of coal and water is placed
inside a steel reaction vessel. When the mixture is heated to 1300
K, the equilibrium partial pressure of water is 2.80E2 bar.
Calculate the following equilibrium partial pressures.
Partial pressure of H2?
bar
Partial pressure of CO2?
bar
C(s) + 2H2O(g) -> CO2(g) +
2H2(g)
key = 0.38 at 1300 K
