An industrial fuel, ‘water gas’, which consists of a mixture of H 2 and CO can be made by passing steam over red-hot carbon. The reaction is
C(s) + H 2 O(g) 
CO(g) + H2(g), DH = +131 kJ
The yield of CO and H 2 at equilibrium would be shifted to the product side by :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(a, c)
Addition of solids have no effect on equilibrium and temperature favours endothermic direction while increasing pressure will shift equilibrium in backward direction as 
ng is +ve.
