Hydrogen is produced by the reaction: CO(g) + H2O(g) → CO2(g) + H2(g). The feed stream to the reactor is an equimolar mixture of carbon monoxide and steam, and it enters the reactor at 125°C and atmospheric pressure. If 60% of the H2O is converted to H2 and if the product stream leaves the reactor at 425°C, how much heat must be transferred to or from the reactor?

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
