Sup peeps; hope you're doing well.
As the title says there's this horrible Q I don't even want to look at - Can't understand what to even mention & start with. 🙃
Q: Syngas is a mixture of gases largerly made from carbon monoxide and hydrogen. It is made from the reaction between methane and ateam according to the following equation: CH4 (g) + H20 (g) (Reversable reaction arrow) CO (g) + 3H2 (g) ------ Enthalpy change = +206kJmol-1.
The industrial conditions used for this process are (a) A nickel based catalyst (b) 750 °C reaction temperature & (c) 5-10 atm pressure.
Discuss each of these reaction conditions relating them to the information shown above. Why do you think different industrial process for the manufacture of syngas might use different conditions? [10]
So that's the whole Question. I would appreciate any answers to the actual Q and the help of course. 😊
Thanks x
