Dihydrogen gas used in Haber's process i...

Dihydrogen gas used in Haber's process is produced by reacting methane from natural gas with high temperature steam. The first stage of the two `2` stage reaction involves the formation of `CO` and `H_(2)`. In second stage, `CO` formed in first stage is reacted with more steam in water gas shift reaction,
`CO(g)+H_(2)O(g) hArr CO_(2)(g)+H_(2)(g)`
If a reaction vessel at `400^(@)C` is charged with an equimolar mixture of `CO` and steam such that `p_(CO)=p_(H_(2)O)=4.0` bar, what will be the partial pressure of `H_(2)` at equilibrium? `K_(p)=10.1` at `400^(@)C`.

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation. The reaction we are considering is: \[ \text{CO(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{O(g)} \rightleftharpoons \text{CO}_2\text{(g)} + \text{H}_2\text{(g)} \] ### Step 2: Define the initial conditions. We are given that the initial partial pressures of CO and H2O are both 4.0 bar. Therefore: ...
