Question

Consider the following reactions:

CO (g) + H2O (g) <-> CO2 (g) + H2 (g)    |         Kp(1)= 0.694 at 1200.K

C3H8 (g) + 3 H2O (g) <-> 3 CO (g) + 7 H2 (g) | Kp(2)= 8.175 x 1015 at 1200.K

 

  • Write the overall equation for the reaction of propane and steam to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
  • Calculate Kp for the overall process at 1200. K.
  • What molecule(s) in the steps are reaction intermediate(s)?
  • If 0.500 atm of CO2, H2, C3H8, and H2O are initially placed in the same container, then given your answer in part a., determine which direction the reaction will shift in order to establish equilibrium.
