Soc., vol. 52, 1930, p. 4268-4285; Chem. Abs., vol. 25, 1931, p. 453. The equilibrium constant K=PH2O/PH2 for the reaction FeO+H2=Fe+H2O was determined by a flow method. At 600°, 700°, 800°, 900°, and 1,000°, K is, respectively, 0.332, 0.422, 0.499, 0.594, and 0.669. For the reaction Fe3O4+H2=3FeO+H2O, K is 1.18 at 700° and 2.37 at 800°. The water-gas constants, calculated by combining these Fe-H-O equilibrium values with those for the Fe-C-O system, agree excellently with constants measured directly by Neumann and Kohler. |
