Large quantities of hydrogen are needed for the synthesis of ammonia. One preparation of hydrogen involves the reaction between carbon monoxide and steam at 300°C in the presence of a copper-zinc catalyst:

Calculate the equilibrium constant (Kp)for the reaction and the temperature at which the reaction favors the formation of CO and H2O Will a larger Kp be attained at the same temperature if a more efficient catalyst is used?
