Answer to Question #52977 in Physical Chemistry for HOORAIN

Question

Hydrogen and carbon dioxide gases are mixed in equal molar amounts at 800 K. A reversible
reaction takes place.At equilibrium, the partial pressures of H2 and CO2 are both 10.0 kPa. Kp is 0.288 at 800 K.
What is the partial pressure of CO in the equilibrium mixture?
the equation is H2(g) + CO2(g)-------)H2O(g) + CO(g) the reaction is reversible.
