The reverse water-gas reaction is an undesirable side-reaction during industrial hydrogen production:
CO2 + H2 ↔ CO + H2O
(A)What is the equilibrium composition of a mixture at 1500K that initially contained 40 mol. % CO2,
30 mol. % H2, 20 mol. % CO and 10 mol. % H2O? Employ canonical partition functions.
(B) Employ the JANAF table data to find this mixture composition at equilibrium at 1500K and
compare it to the results in part (A). Do they agree? How can one explain the differences?
