2. (7.34) When steam is passed over coal and allowed to come to equilibrium at 800°C, the equilibrium constant (Keq) for the reaction has a value of 8.1 x 10-2. C(s) + H2O(g) ½ CO(g) + H2(g) a. Explain why the concentration of water appears in the equilibrium constant expression for this reaction, when it is usually omitted from such equations. b. Write the equilibrium constant expression for the reaction. c. Which are there more of at equilibrium, reactants or products?
