where P is the total pressure (atm), Keq the reaction equilibrium constant (atm-2), and T the temperature (K). The equilibrium
constant Keg equals 10.5 at 373 K, and 2.316 x 10-4 at 573 K. A semilog plot of Keg (logarithmic scale) versus 1/T (rectangular scale)
is approximately linear between T = 300 K and T = 600 K.

a. What is the value of log10(Keg × (1 atm)2) at T= 420 K?
0.0337
b. Suppose you begin with a molar ratio of CO/H2 = 1.000 and no methanol. If the reaction proceeds to equilibrium at 420 K and 2
atm, calculate the molar composition of the product and the fractional conversion of CO.
