Synthesis gas (a mixture of H2 and CO) can be produced by the catalytic reforming
of methane with steam. The reactions are:
Assume that equilibrium is attained for both reactions at 1 bar and 1300 K.
- Calculate the equilibrium constants K1 and K2 for reactions 1 and 2.

Transcribed Image Text:Reaction 1 - steam-methane reforming reaction:
CHĄ(g) + H20(g) → co(g) + 3H2(g)
Reaction 2 - water gas shift reaction:
Co(g) + H20 (g) → CO2(g) + H2(g)
