CO(g)+H2O(g)CO2(g)+H2(g) (a) On analysis, an equilibrium mixture of the substances present at the given temperature was found to contain 0.20 mol of CO, 0.30 mol of water vapor, and 0.90 mol of H2 in a liter. How many moles of CO2 were there in the equilibrium mixture? (b) Maintaining the same temperature, additional H2 was added to the system, and some water vapor was removed by drying.
