1.50L reaction vessel was initially filled with 0.150moles of COand 0.300moles of H2. After equilibrium is established, the vesselis found to contain 0.119moles of CO. What is the equilibriumconstant for this reaction? The reaction is: CO(g) + 2H2(g) ↔CH3OH(g)

                            CO(g) + 2H2(g) ↔ CH3OH(g)

                      I    0.15        0.3               0

                     C -0.031    -2*0.031       0.031

                    E    0.119        0.238        0.031

                          [CO] = 0.119/1.5   = 0.079M

                          [H2}   = 0.238/1.5    = 0.158M

                          [CH3OH] = 0.031/1.5   = 0.02 M

                    Kc = [CH3OH]/[CO][H2]2

                          = 0.02/0.079*(0.158)2     = 10.14 >>>> answer
