454. CHAKRAVARTY, K. M. [Equilibrium Constants of the Reactions CO+3 H2=CH4+H2O; CO2+4 H2=CH4+2 H2O; and 2 CO+2 H2=CH4+CO2.] Ztschr. Elektrochem., vol. 34, 1928, pp. 22-25; Chem. Abs., vol. 22, 1928, p. 4040. Constants for the above equilibria at temperatures 800°-1,300° have been calculated: (a) From the variation with temperature of the equilibrium constants for C+2 H2=CH4; 2 CO=C+CO2; and CO2+H2=CO+H2O; and (b) from the heats of reaction and the specific heats and chemical constants of reactants and products. The figures obtained are compared and discussed. |
