Question
For the reaction CO(g) + 3 H2(g) = H20(g) + CH4(g), Kc = 189 at 1000 K.
A vessel is filled with these gases such that the initial concentrations are:
[CO] = 0.036 M
[H2] = 0.045
%3D
[H2O] = 0.020
[CH4] =
= 0.031
Is the system at equilibrium? If not, in which direction will a reaction shift to reach equilibrium?
toward products because Q = 0.38
toward reactants because Q = 0.24
toward reactants because Q = 61
it is at equilibrium because Q = 189
toward products because Q = 4.1
