Which would allow you to add more powdered mix to the water? dissolve the powdered mix first because it increases solubility of the powdered mix. dissolve the powdered mix first because it is easier to stir when the water is cold. heat up the water first because it increases solubility of the powdered mix. heat up the water first because it is easier to stir when the water is hot.

Steam reforming of methane ( ch4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. an industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 1.5 l flask with 3.5 atm of methane gas and 1.3 atm of water vapor at 43.0°c. he then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of carbon monoxide gas to be 1 .0 atm. calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
