In water-gas shift reaction, hydrogen gas is produced from the reaction of steam
In water-gas shift reaction, hydrogen gas is produced from the reaction of steam with:
- A. methane
- B. coke
- C. carbon monoxide
- D. carbon dioxide
Step-by-step solution
The water-gas shift reaction is a chemical reaction in which carbon monoxide reacts with steam (water vapor) to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas: CO + H2O → CO2 + H2. Therefore, hydrogen gas is produced from the reaction of steam with carbon monoxide.
