Question 12
H

Hydrogen can also be made by reacting carbon monoxide with steam. The forward reaction is exothermic. CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌CO2(g)+H2(g)\mathrm{CO(g) + H_{2}O(g) \rightleftharpoons CO_{2}(g) + H_{2}(g)}CO(g)+H2​O(g)⇌CO2​(g)+H2​(g)

Statement 1: increasing the pressure increases the rate at which equilibrium is reached but does not change the equilibrium yield of hydrogen

Statement 2: raising the temperature increases both the rate at which equilibrium is reached and the equilibrium yield of hydrogen

Statement 3: removing carbon dioxide from the mixture as it forms increases the yield of hydrogen

Which statements are correct?
