A stoichiometric amount of CO and O2 initially at 298.15 K react adiabatically and isobarically at pressure p.
(a) If the extent of dissociation of CO2 is , derive an expression for Kp in terms of and p.
(b) For p = 6 atm, calculate and the adiabatic flame temperature Tad.
(c) Repeat (b), but use air instead of O2 as the oxidizer. What can you say about the differences in the answers here as compared with those in (b)?
