Q3
Hot carbon reacts with steam to produce an equimolar mixture of $$CO(g)$$ and $$H_2(g)$$ known as water gas. What is the energy released as water gas is used as fuel? $$CO(g)+\dfrac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g); \Delta H=-282.984$$ kJ $$H_2(g)+\dfrac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow H_2O(g); \Delta H=-241.818$$ kJ.

Q4
Dihydrogen gas used in Habers process is produced by reacting methane from natural gas with high temperature steam. The first stage of two stage reaction involves the formation of CO and H2. In second stage, CO formed in first stage is reacted with more steam in water gas shift reaction, CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g) If a reaction vessel at 400oC is charged with an equimolar mixture of CO and steam such that PCO=PH2O=4.0bar, what will be the partial pressure of H2 at equilibrium? KP=0.1 at 400oC?
