Explain the reaction that produces the water gas mixture

Reference no: EM13536466

The reaction that produces the water gas mixture is as follows: C(s) + H2O(g) ? CO(g) + H2(g) This reaction requires an input of 131 kJ of heat for every mole of carbon that reacts.

a. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?

b. What is the energy change for this reaction in units of kJ/mol of carbon?
