Amixture of ch4 and h2o is passed over a nickel catalyst at 1000 k. the emerging gas is collected in a 5.00-l flask and is found to contain 8.62 g of co, 2.60 g of h2, 43.0 g of ch4, and 48.4 g of h2o.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.

the temperature of the gas, in k, not celsius.
