     Discrepancies between calculated values for Kp and those experimentally determined for the MeOH synthesis may be accounted for by lack of extreme accuracy for heats of reaction, since the quantity sought is the result of differences of larger quantities.  Thus, if the value for heat of combustion for MeOH were in error 0.1%, Kp for the reaction at 298.1°, K would be in error 33%.
