CO(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ CH4(g) + H2O(g) H210 kJ mol-1 A mixture of CO and H2 in a 1:3 molar ratio was added into a sealed vessel and heated to 1200K. At equilibrium, 40% of the CO had reacted. The total pressure in the vessel was 12 atm at equilibrium. For Examiner’s Use (i) Write the expression for the equilibrium constant, Kp, for this reaction. [1] (ii) Use your expression to calculate the value of Kp for the reaction at 1200K. Include its units. [3] (iii) Given that the value of Kp decreases with increasing temperature, deduce the sign for the enthalpy change, H of the forward reaction. Explain your reasoning.
