A mixture of HO and O is heated to a high temperature The equilibrium composition is to be determined Assumptions 1 The equilibrium composition consists of HO OH O and H 2 The constituents of the mixture are ideal gases Analysis The reaction equation during this process can be expressed as 2HO 30 Mass balances for hydrogen and oxygen yield H balance 4 2x2yw 1 where O balance 8x2zw The mass balances provide us with only two equations with four unknowns and thus we need to have two more equations to be obtained from the Kp relations to determine ...View the full answer
