Having trouble with the Algebra. Can't get an X= 0.400

A reaction miture initilly contains a co partial pmeur e 1344 borr and a H,0 partial pressure of 1766 torr at 2000 K culate the equilibcium partial pressures of each of the librium 65. Each and t shifit ch of the 59. Consider the following reaction: b. 2 resent at Find the equilibrium concentrations of A, B, and Cfor et following different values of K. Assume that the initial tration of A in cach case is 1.0 M and that the reatisn mi 6, Each and

Explanation / Answer

          CO     + H2O -------> CO2 + H2

I        1344         1766            0           0

C        -x             -x               +x          +x

E       1344-x     1766-x            +x         +x

     Kp   = PCO2 * PH2/PCO * PH2O

    0.0611 = x*x/(1344-x )(1766-x)

0.0611*(1344-x )(1766-x) = x2

    x = 304.64

PCO   = 1344-x = 1344-304.64 = 1039.36torr

PH2o    = 1766-x   = 1766-304.64 = 1461.36 torr

PCO2 =    x        = 304.64 torr

PH2     = x          = 304.64torr
