The equilibrium constant for the reac- tion CO(g) + H,O(g) 2 H,(g) + CO,(g) is Keg = 5.10 at 800 K. What are the units of Kegy and how does its numerical value compare with K, and K,? Explain the results of the comparison. If a tank is charged with 1 atm of CO and 10.00 atm of H,O, and these gases are allowed to come to equilibrium, what will be the partial pressures of H, and H,O?
