Water gas contains CO and H_(2) in mole ratio, 1:1. A nickel ore containing Ni_(2)O_(3) may be reduced into Ni as Ni_(2)O_(3)(s)+3H_(2)(g)rarr2Ni(s)+3H_(2)O(g) But due to presence of CO(g), the nickel formed get converted into Ni(CO)_(x)(g). Both the reaction occurs 100% If 240 gm water gas is needed to convert one mole of Ni_(2)O_(3)(s) into Ni(CO)_(x)(g), the value of x is:
