D.  Heats Free Energies, and Equilibrium Constants of Some Reactions Involving O2, H2O, C, CO, CO2, H2, CH4.  Jour. Research Nat.

        Values are given for:  The heat-content function, (H°-H°o)/T, the free-energy function, (F°-H°o)T, the entropy, S°, the heat content, H°-H°o, and the heat capacity, Cop, for:  O2(g), H2(g), N2(g), CO(g) all to 5,000° K.; H2O (g) to 3,000° K.; CO2(g); CO2(g) to 3,500°K.; C (solid, diamond) to 1,200° K.  Also given are:  The standard entropy, S°, for H2O (liq) at 25%; the heat of formation, the free energy of formation, and the equilibrium constant of formation from the elements, for H2O (liq) at 25° and for H2O(g), CO(g), CO2(g), and CH4(g) at 1,500° K.; the increment in heat content and free energy for the transition of graphite into diamond at 1,200° K. and 20,000 atm.  From the foregoing, values were calculated for ∆H°, ∆F°, and the equilibrium constant to 1,500°K. for the following reactions, most of which are important in connection with the production of liquid hydrocarbon fuels from natural gas or coal and H: C (solid, graphite)+CO2(g)=2 CO(g); C (solid, graphite)+H2O(g)=CO(g)+H2(g); CO(g)+1/2O2(g)=CO2(g); CO(g)+H2O(g)=CO2(g)+H2(g); CH4(g)+1/2 O2(g)=CO(g) 2 H2(g); CH4(g)+CO2(g)=2 CO(g)+2 H2(g); CH4(g)+H2O(g)=CO(g)+3 H2(g); CH4(g)+2 H2O(g)=CO2(g)+4 H2(g).
