Asked by Jane
Consider the following equilibrium:
At equilibrium, 4.0 × 10-2mol H2, 4.0 × 10-2mol CO, 1.0 × 10-2mol H2O and 1.0 × 10-2mol C were present in a 1.0L container. What is the value of Keq?
a) 0.063
b) 16
c) 0.16
d) 6.3
I got b, but I'm not too certain about my answer.. Please help.

Keq can be obtained by substitution of the product concentrations and reactant concentrations in the definition of Keq.
