The reversible reaction of carbon monoxide and hydrogen to form methanol is shown below.
CO(g)+2H2(g)⇌CH3OH(g) \text{CO(g)} + 2\text{H}_2\text{(g)} \rightleftharpoons \text{CH}_3\text{OH(g)} CO(g)+2H2(g)⇌CH3OH(g)In the equilibrium mixture, the partial pressure of CO\text{CO}CO is 6.0 atm6.0\text{ atm}6.0 atm and the partial pressure of H2\text{H}_2H2 is 2.0 atm2.0\text{ atm}2.0 atm. The total pressure is 11.0 atm11.0\text{ atm}11.0 atm.
