Expert Solution
Step 1

NOTE : I'm assuming that the equilibrium constant given is concentration equilibrium constant as nothing is given in question.

The reaction taking place is given as,

=> CO (g) + 3 H2 (g) ---------> CH4 (g) + H2O (g)                                 Kc = 3.92 

Given : Moles of CO taken = 1.000 mol.

Moles of H2 taken = 3.000 mol.

And volume of vessel = 10.00 L
