- SUBJECTS Log In Science Chemistry question & answer Mat Hender Asked 1yr ago. About 75 percent of hydrogen for industrial use is produced by the steam-reforming process. This process is carried out in two stages called primary and secondary reforming. In the primary stage, a mixture of steam and methane at about 30 atm is heated over a nickel catalyst at 800 degree C to give hydrogen and carbon monoxide: CH4 (g) + H2O (g) <=> CO (g) + 3 H2 (g) ; ΔH = 206 kJ/mol The secondary stage is carried out at about 1000 degree C, in the presence of air, to convert the remaining methane to hydrogen:CH4 (g) + (1/2) O2 (g) <=> CO (g) + 2 H2 (g) ; ΔH = 35.7 kJ/mol (a) What conditions of…arrow_forwardBoth pleasearrow_forwardIn biological systems, enzymes are used to accelerate the rates of certain biological reactions.

- Please provide detailed solution and give the explanation of the correct and incorrect optionarrow_forward[References] Before two molecules can react, chemists envision that the molecules must first collide with one another. Is collision among molecules the only consideration for the molecules to react with one another? O Yes, collision between molecules is enough for the molecules to react with one another. O Collision between molecules which possess sufficient energy is always enough for the molecules to react with one another. O No, it is not. The molecules must also posses sufficient energy to react, and must have the proper spatial orientation. O Collision is not important. First, the molecules must have the proper spatial orientation.
