Coal gasification produces an easily-transportable, clean-burning combination of carbon monoxide and hydrogen from coal by reacting it with steam, like this:
C(s) +H₂O(g) CO(g) + H₂ (g)
Suppose an engineer decides to study the rate of this reaction. He prepares four reaction vessels with 128.7 g of solid carbon and 14.7 g of steam each. The
volume and temperature of each vessel is shown in the table below.
Arrange the reaction vessels in decreasing order of initial rate of reaction. In other words, select a "1" next to the vessel in which the engineer can reasonably
expect the initial rate of reaction to be highest, a "2" next to the vessel in which the initial rate of reaction would be next highest, and so on.
