?Methanol \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}\right)\) can be made by the reaction of CO

Chapter 15, Problem 15.66

(choose chapter or problem)

Methanol \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}\right)\) can be made by the reaction of CO with \(\mathrm{H}_{2}\) :

\(\mathrm{CO}(g)+2 \mathrm{H}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}(g)\)

(a) Use thermochemical data in Appendix C to calculate \(\Delta H^{\circ}\) for this reaction.

(b) To maximize the equilibrium yield of methanol, would you use a high or low temperature?

(c) To maximize the equilibrium yield of methanol, would you use a high or low pressure?
