The reform reaction between steam and gaseous methane (CH) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and dihydrogen gas. Synthesis gas is one of the most widely used Industrial chemicals, and is the major Industrial source of hydrogen. Suppose a chemical engineer studying a new catalyst for the reform reaction finds that 419. Ilters per second of methane are consumed when the reaction is run at 263. °C and the methane Is supplied at 0.93 atm. Calculate the rate at which dihydrogen is belng produced. Give your answer in kilograms per second. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
