Hydrogen is manufactured on an industrial scale by this sequence of reactions:
CH,( H,O(g)CO(g)+3H2(g)
CO(g) +H2O(g) CO2(g) + H2(g) K,
The net reaction is:
CH4(g)+2H2O(g) CO2(g)+4H2(g)
Write an equation that gives the overall equilibrium constant K in terms of the equilibrium constants K and K If you need to include any physical constants, be sure you use their standard symbols, which you'll find in the ALEKS Calculator

Answer:

Explanation:

CH₄ +  H₂O(g)    ⇒ CO(g)+3H2(g)

Equilibrium constant

K₁ = [CO][H₂]³ / [CH₄][H₂O]

CO(g)+H₂O(g) ⇒ CO₂(g) + H₂(g)

Equilibrium constant

K₂ =  [CO₂][H₂] / [CO][H₂O]

CH₄(g)+2H₂O(g)  ⇒  CO₂(g)+4H₂(g)

Equilibrium constant

K =   [CO₂][H₂]⁴ /[CH₄][H₂O]²

=  [CO][H₂]³ / [CH₄][H₂O] X [CO₂][H₂] / [CO][H₂O]

K₁ x K₂

K = K₁ x K₂
