According to that Kc is an equilibrium constant in terms of molar concentrations.
and Kc = [C]^c *[D]^d / [A]^a * [B]^b >>>> (1)
in the general reaction:
aA + bB ↔ cC + dD 
and, from our balanced equation:
CH4 + H2O ⇔ Co + 3H2 >>> (2)
So, we need to calculate the concentrations (molarity) of the products and reactants:
the Molarity of CH4 = no. of moles/volume (L)
 and no. of moles = weigh / Molecular weight = 42.3 / 16 = 2.643 moles
so the molarity of CH4 = 2.643 / 5 = 0.528 molar
the molarity of H20 = (49.2 / 18) / 5 =  0.546 molar
the molarity of CO = (8.32/28) / 5 = 0.059 molar
the molarity of H2 = (2.63 / 2) / 5 = 0.263 molar 
By substitution in (1) according to (2);
∴ Kc = [0.059]*[0.263]^3 / ( [0.528]*[0.546]) = 3.7 * 10 ^-3  >>>> (3)
Kp = Kc (RT)^(Δn) >>> (4)
where R is the gas constant = 0.0821,
and Δn is the change in moles in gas= (3(H2) + 1 (CO) - (1 H2O + 1 CH4) = 2
by substition in (4):
∴ Kp = 3.7*10^-3 (0.0821* 1000)^2= 24.939

CO is a primary pollutant. <br> a. True<br> b. False?
Y_Kistochka [10]
<h2>Answer : Option A) true</h2><h3>Explanation : </h3>

CO which is carbon monoxide is a primary pollutant for air pollution. As it contributes to the major proportion in the air pollutants amongst others. It has 48% percent of pollutants in comparison to other pollutants of air. The source of carbon monoxide is mainly from incomplete combustion of fuel  mostly from the older cars.

The rise in atmospheric CO results in fatigue, drowsiness and my also sometimes lead to death of the person exposed to it.

PLEASE HELP!! 20 POINTS!
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Energy transformation, also known as energy conversion, is the process of changing energy from one type of energy to another. In physics, energy is a quantity that provides the capacity to perform work (e.g. lifting an object) or provides heat. In addition to being convertible, according to the law of conservation of energy, energy is transferable to a different location or object, but it cannot be created or destroyed.

The energy in many of its forms may be used in natural processes, or to provide some service to society such as heating, refrigeration, lighting or performing mechanical work to operate machines. For example, to heat a home, the furnace burns fuel, whose chemical potential energy is converted into thermal energy, which is then transferred to the home's air to raise its temperature.
