chemical equilibrium

Question

please help me methanol gas decomposes in carbon dioxide and hydrogen at 327 c temperature, the equilibrium concentrations are methanol is 0.15M, carbon dioxide 0.24M and hydrogen is 1.1M for the reaction calculate kp at the temperature  

 

Answer 1

The balanced chemical reaction can be written as

 

H3COH + H2O ⇒  CO2 + 3 H2

 

Kp =    [CO2] [H2]³  /[H3COH]

 

Plugging in gives  Kp =  2.13
