The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Hydrogen is manufactured on an industrial scale by this sequence of reactions:

$CH_3(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H_2(g    ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_1$

$CO(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  K_2$

The net reaction is  :

$CH_4(g) + 2H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + 4H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K$

Write an equation that gives the overall equilibrium constant K in terms of the equilibrium constants K_1 and K_2. If you need to include any physical constants, be sure you use their standard symbols, which you'll find in the ALEKS Calculator.

Solution :

$CH_3(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO(g) + 3H_2(g    ) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K_1$

$K_1 = \frac{[CO][H_2]^3}{[CH_4][H_2O]}$     ...............(1)

$CO(g) + H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  K_2$

$K_2 = \frac{[CO_2][H_2]}{[CO][H_2O]}$  ...................(2)

$CH_4(g) + 2H_2O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_2(g) + 4H_2(g) \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ K$

$K=\frac{[CO_2][H_2]^4}{[CH_4][H_2O]^2}$

On multiplication of equation (1) and (2), we get

$K_1 \times K_2=\frac{[CO][H_2]^3}{[CH_4][H_2O]} \times \frac{[CO_2][H_2]}{[CO][H_2O]}$

$K_1K_2=\frac{[CO_2][H_2]^4}{[CH_4][H_2O]^2}$  .................(4)

Comparing equation (3) and equation (4), we get

$K=K_1K_2$

Based on the graph of US population and steel consumption, what could have led to the increase in steel consumption seen
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

A. Whenever the population has increased, steel consumption has increased as well.

Explanation:

Based on the graph of US population and steel consumption, what could have led to the increase in steel consumption seen  on the graph is that whenever the population has increased, steel consumption has increased as well.

A critical look at the graph, you will discover that the population and the steel consumption are moving upwards (i.e they are increasing). It's seen that as the population increases, steel consumption increases. This is true because as the population increases, people are building houses, more transportation systems that require steel are being manufactured, more household utensils that are steel products are being fabricated etc; therefore the consumption of steel increases.
