Question

 Consider the following reaction:
CH3OH(g) CH2O(g) + H2(g) K = 3.29 x 10−11
a. If 14.4 g of CH3OH(g) is added to a 1.50 L container at 298 K, calculate the equilibrium
concentrations of all gases

b. Without doing any calculations, predict what happens if the reaction is put in a 2.00 L
container instead of a 1.50 L container.

c. . Without doing any calculations, predict what happens if H2SO4 (a catalyst) is added
