A mixture of ch4 and h2o is passed over a nickel catalyst at 1000. k. the emerging gas is collected in a 5.00-l flask and is fou

nd to contain 8.32 g of co, 2.63 g of h2, 42.3 g of ch4, and 49.2 g of h2o. assuming that equilibrium has been reached, calculate kc and kp for the reaction.

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

kompoz [17]

Answer:

<u>Why is it important to keep the two sides of an equation balanced when solving?</u>

If two expressions are equal to each other, and you add the same value to both sides of the equation, the equation will remain equal. When you solve an equation, you find the value of the variable that makes the equation true.

<u>What other properties do we use to rewrite expressions and equations?</u>
