Answer to Question #134025 in General Chemistry for nondumiso

Question

Two components of natural gas are H2S and CH4. Their reaction was studied by
researchers in a 250.00 mL reactor at 960 ºC. Under these conditions, the value of Kc is
0.036. The reaction taking place is the following:
CH4(g) + 2H2S(g) ⇌ CS2(g) + 4H2(g);
ΔrH = + 87.6 kJ. mol−1

Answer 1

Equilibrium lies on the left thus more reactant are formed than products.

Q=(4)(8)⁴ ÷(4)(8)² =64
