help----Haber Process

[XPFMember]

I was reading the syllabus, it says sources of hydrogen are hydrocarbons or steam!how do we get it from steam?? :shock:

 

[Adham-amr]

we get hydrogen by adding steam to alkane CH4 + 2 H2O --> CO2 + 4 H2

we get hydrogen by adding steam to alkane CH4 + 2 H2O --> CO2 + 4 H2

Catalytic Reaction ,
CH4 + H2O---> CO+ 3H2 , and carbon monoxide reacts with more steam , giving out more Hydrogen , CO + H2O ---> CO2 + H2 , an overall would be the equation Adham wrote.

oh!!! i thought that we get it w/o CH4 using steam
anyway JazakAllahKhairan

You could use electrolysis of water to gain hydrogen , more about haber process over here
