The balanced equation for the reaction is
CO(g) + 2H₂(g) ⇄ CH₃<span>OH(g)
Since given concentrations are at equilibrium state, the expression for the equilibrium constant, k can be written as
k = [</span>CH₃OH(g)] / [CO(g)] [H₂(g) ]²
By substitution,
k = 0.030 M / 0.020 M x (<span>0.072 M</span>)²
k = 289.35 M⁻²
the answer would be B an atom that has lost an electron
Moles = Molarity x Volume
Moles = 2.0 x 0.50
= 1.0 mole
hope this helps!
