Dissociation of products of combustion at high temperature can alter the expected composition. Determine if water is likely to form other products at 3000 K and 1 atm. Determine the equilibrium composition of O2, H₂ and H₂O at these conditions. Note: The reaction H₂O ⇒ H₂ + 1/2 O₂ is tabulated with log10Kp = -1.343 at 3000 K.
