question in chemistry
« on: December 20, 2013, 09:17:08 AM »
CO(g) + H2O(g) --> CO2(g) + H2(g), in an experiment, 0.25 moles CO2 was created from a reaction of 0.75 moles H2O and 0.5 moles CO. what is the utilization percentage of CO2
what is the correct answer?
1)100%
2) 50%
3)33%
4)25%
thanks!

OK, so how much CO2 could you make with that mixture?

What does the (balanced) reaction equation tell you?
