Carbon monoxide and excess steam are normally passed over a cobalt catalyst at about 250-300 C resulting in greater than 99% conversion of CO to COj. This conversion reaction is widely used in oil or solid fuel gasification processes for the production of town gas or substitute natural gas. ... 

There has been a general updating of the material in all the chapters the treatment of films at the liquid-air and liquid-solid interfaces has been expanded, particularly in the area of contemporary techniques and that of macromolecular films. The scanning microscopies (tunneling and atomic force) now contribute more prominently. The topic of heterogeneous catalysis has been expanded to include the well-studied case of oxidation of carbon monoxide on metals, and there is now more emphasis on the flexible surface, that is, the restructuring of surfaces when adsorption occurs. New calculational methods are discussed.

Chromium forms a white solid, hexacarhonyl, Cr(CO)j, with the chromium in formal oxidation state 0 the structure is octahedral, and if each CO molecule donates two electrons, the chromium attains the noble gas structure. Many complexes are known where one or more of the carbon monoxide ligands are replaced by other groups of ions, for example [CrfCOlsI] . 

The solid readily dissolves chemically in concentrated hydrochloric acid, forming a complex, and in ammonia as the colourless, linear, complex cation [H3N -> Cu <- NHj] (cf AgCl) if air is absent (in the presence of air, this is oxidis to a blue ammino-copper(II) complex). This solution of ammoniacal copper(I) chloride is a good solvent or carbon monoxide, forming an addition compound CuCl. CO. H2O, and as such is used in gas analysis. On passing ethyne through the ammoniacal solution, a red-brown precipitate of hydrated copper(I) dicarbide (explosive when dry) is obtained ... 

Solid carbon monoxide exists in one of two aUotropes, a body-centered cubic or a hexagonal stmcture. The body-centered stmcture converts into the hexagonal stmcture at 62 K with a heat of transition of 0.632 kj/mol (0.151 kcal/mol) (5). The melting point at atmospheric pressure is 68.1 K and... 

Products of Combustion For lean mixtures, the products of combustion (POC) of a sulfur-free fuel consist of carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrogen, oxygen, and possible small amounts of carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbon species. Figure 27-12 shows the effect of fuel-air ratio on the flue gas composition resulting from the combustion of natural gas. In the case of solid and liquid fuels, the... 

Raw material input to petroleum refineries is primarily crude oil however, petroleum refineries use and generate an enormous number of chemicals, many of which leave the facilities as discharges of air emissions, wastewater, or solid waste. Pollutants generated typically include VOCs, carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxides (SOJ, nitrogen oxides (NOJ, particulates, ammonia (NH3), hydrogen sulfide (HjS) metals, spent acids, and numerous toxic organic compounds. 

Benzaldehyde.—The aldehydes of the aromatic seiies may also be obtained by the oxidation of a methyl side-chain with chromium oxychloride. The solid brown product, C,H,.CH.)(CrO,CL)2, formed by adding C1O2CIJ to toluene, dissolved in carbon bisulphide, is decomposed with water, and benzaldehyde sepaiates out (Etard). Other methods for pie-paring aromatic aldehydes are (i) the Fiiedel-Crafts reaction, in which a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen chloride aie passed into the hydrocaibon in presence of aluminium chloride and a little cuprous chloride,... 

The apparatus employed in the preceding experiment is used. To 600 g of 98% sulfuric acid at O " (ice-salt bath) is added about 3 ml of 88 % formic acid. When the rapidly stirred solution becomes foamy with evolution of carbon monoxide, 50 g of decahydro-2-naphthol and 100 g of 88% formic acid are added from two dropping funnels over 3 hours. During the addition, the temperature is kept below 5° the mixture continues to foam. Work-up as for the cis acid gives about 85% of solid acid, predominantly trans. After three recrystallizations from acetone, about 7 g of the pure acid is obtained, mp 135-136°. 

A l-Iiter, three-necked, round-bottom flask is equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a thermometer immersed in the reaction mixture, a dropping funnel, and a gas vent. In the flask is placed a mixture of 96% sulfuric acid (25.5 ml, 470 g, 4.8 mole), carbon tetrachloride (100 ml), and adamantane (13.6 g, 0.10 mole), and the mixture is cooled to 15-20° with rapid stirring in an ice bath. One milliliter of 98% formic acid is added and the mixture is stirred until the evolution of carbon monoxide is rapid (about 5 minutes). A solution of 29.6 g (38 ml, 0.40 mole) of t-butyl alcohol in 55 g (1.2 mole) of 98-100% formic acid is then added dropwise to the stirred mixture over 1-2 hours, the temperature being maintained at 15-20°. After stirring for an additional 30 minutes, the mixture is poured onto 700 g of ice, the layers are separated, and the aqueous (upper) layer is extracted three times with lOO-ml portions of carbon tetrachloride. The combined carbon tetrachloride solutions are shaken with 110 ml of 15 A ammonium hydroxide, whereupon ammonium 1-adamantanecarboxylate forms as a crystalline solid. This precipitate is collected by filtration through a fritted glass funnel and washed... 

Into a pressure reactor there was charged 100 ml of methanol and 1 g of diruthenium nona-carbonyl. The reactor was closed, cooled in solid carbon dioxide/acetone, and evacuated. Acetylene, to the extent of 1 mol (26 g), was metered into the cold reactor. Carbon monoxide was then pressured into this vessel at 835-9BO atmospheres, during a period of 16.5 hours while the reactor was maintained at 100°C to 1 50°C. The reactor was then cooled to room temperature and opened. 

Public concerns about air quality led to the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1970 to amendments to that act in 1977 and 1990. The 1990 amendments contained seven separate titles covering different regula-toiy programs and include requirements to install more advanced pollution control equipment and make other changes in industrial operations to reduce emissions of air pollutants. The 1990 amendments address sulfur dioxide emissions and acid rain deposition, nitrous oxide emissions, ground-level ozone, carbon monoxide emissions, particulate emissions, tail pipe emissions, evaporative emissions, reformulated gasoline, clean-fueled vehicles and fleets, hazardous air pollutants, solid waste incineration, and accidental chemical releases.

One leading prototype of a high-temperature fuel cell is the solid oxide fuel cell, or SOFC. The basic principle of the SOFC, like the PEM, is to use an electrolyte layer with high ionic conductivity but very small electronic conductivity. Figure B shows a schematic illustration of a SOFC fuel cell using carbon monoxide as fuel. 

Conversion of carbon to carbon monoxide. In the lower part of the furnace, coke burns to form carbon dioxide, C02. As the C02 rises through the solid mixture, it reacts further with the coke to form carbon monoxide, CO. The overall reaction is... 

In the Fischer-Tropsch process, carbon monoxide reacts with hydrogen in the presence of a solid catalyst, with the formation of a mixture of hydrocarbons. The composition of the product varies considerably with the catalyst and the operating conditions. The mixture may include (in addition to hydrocarbons) alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, and acids. 

For most substances, the Third Law and statistical calculations of the entropy of the ideal gas are in agreement, but there are exceptions, some of which are summarized in Table 4.2. The difference results from residual entropy, So, left in the solid at 0 Kelvin because of disorder so that St - So calculated from Cp/TdT is less than the St calculated from statistical methods. In carbon monoxide the residual disorder results from a random arrangement of the CO molecules in the solid. Complete order in the solid can be represented schematically (in two-dimensions) by... 

H.9 In one stage in the commercial production of iron metal in a blast furnace, the iron(III) oxide, I c20 , reacts with carbon monoxide to form solid Fe 04 and carbon dioxide gas. In a second stage, the Fe304 reacts further with carbon monoxide to produce solid elemental iron and carbon dioxide. Write the balanced equation for each stage in the process. 

Calculate the entropy of a tiny solid made up of four diatomic molecules of a compound such as carbon monoxide, CO, at T = 0 when (a) the four molecules have formed a perfectly ordered crystal in which all molecules are aligned with their C atoms on the left (top-left image in Fig. 7.7) and (b) the four molecules lie in random orientations (but parallel, any of the images in Fig. 7.7). 

FIGURE 7.7 A tiny sample of solid carbon monoxide consisting of foui molecules. Each box represents a different arrangement of the four molecules. When there is only one way of arranging the four molecules so that they all point in one direction (as in the top left image), the entropy of the solid is zero. When all sixteen ways of arranging four CO molecules arc accessible, the entropy of the solid is greater than zero.
