Steam reforming of methane ( CH4 ) produces "synthesis
gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is
the starting point for many important industrial chemical
syntheses. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills
a 500.mL flask with 1.5 atm of methane gas
and 0.92atm of water vapor, and when the mixture has come
to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of hydrogen gas to be
1.4atm. Calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the steam
reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. Round
your answer to 2 significant digits.
