PLEASE HELP :"( DUE NOW!!

What is the equation for the equilibrium constant for this equation?


CO+3H2⇌CH4+H2O



[H2O][H2]/[CH4][CO]



[CO][H2]3/[CH4][H2O]



[CH4][H2O]/[CO][H2]3



[CH]4[H2O]/[H2]3

Answer:

The correct answer is

[CH4][H2O]/[CO][H2]3

Option 3 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Data given

For the equation aA + bB ⇆ cC + dD

The equilibrium constant is [C]^c * [D]^d / [A]^a*[B]^b

Step 2: Calculate the equilibrium constant Kc

CO+3H2⇌CH4+H2O

Kc = [H2O][CH4] / [CO][H2]³

The correct answer is

[CH4][H2O]/[CO][H2]3

Option 3 is correct
