The chemical reaction system that can be used to produce the

The chemical reaction system that can be used to produce the biofuel methanol, CH3OH (g),is represented by the following equation: 2 H2(g) + CO (g) = CH3OH (g) K = 10.5 at 500 K Question #1) When the concentrations of hydrogen, H2 (g); carbon monoxide, CO (g); and methanol are 0.25 mol/L, 0.25 mol/L, and 0.040 mol/L, respectively, is the system at equilibrium? Place your answer in blank #1. Question #2) If not, predict the direction in which the equilibrium will shift and explain why. Place your answer in blank #2.
