Calculate the equilibrium concentration of co in the flask


The chemistry of compounds composed of a carbon monoxide and transition metal has been an interesting area of research for the past 60 years. Ni (CO) 4 is produced by the reaction of nickel metal with carbon monoxide.

1. Determine how many grams of Ni (CO)4 can be formed if you have 2.05g CO, and you combine it with 0.125g nickel metal.

2. Calculate the enthalpy change for this decomposition reaction? The Molar enthalpy of formation of Ni (CO)4 =-602.9 kJ/mol.

Ni(CO)4(g) -->Ni(s) + 4CO(g)   @ 100.deg C it is determined that with the 0.010 mol Ni(CO)4(g)initially present in a 1.0-L flask, only 0.000010 mol remains after decomposition.

3. Calculate the equilibrium concentration of CO in the flask?

4. Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant Kc for this reaction @ 100. deg C?

5. Calculate whether there is an increase or a decrease in entropy when this reaction occurs.

6. Determine the equilibrium constant Kp for this reaction @100. deg C.
