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 .
