Which statement explains the relationship between the amount of energy it takes to break a bond and the amount of energy released when the same bond is formed? (1 point) A. The amount of energy it takes to break a bond is always greater than the amount of energy released when the bond is formed.

B. The relationship depends on the particular bond.

C. The amounts of energy are always equal.

D. The amount of energy it takes to break a bond is always less than the amount of energy released when the bond is formed.

Steam reforming of methane ( ch4) produces "synthesis gas," a mixture of carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas, which is the starting point for many important industrial chemical syntheses. an industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 1.5 l flask with 3.5 atm of methane gas and 1.3 atm of water vapor at 43.0°c. he then raises the temperature, and when the mixture has come to equilibrium measures the partial pressure of carbon monoxide gas to be 1 .0 atm. calculate the pressure equilibrium constant for the steam reforming of methane at the final temperature of the mixture. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
