As one step in its purification, nickel metal reacts with carbon monoxide to form a compound called nickel tetracarbonyl, Ni(CO)4, which is a gas at temperatures above about 316 K. A 3.00-L flask is filled with CO gas to a pressure of 900 torr at 350.0 K, and then 4.50 g of Ni is added. Assume the reaction described above occurs and goes to completion at constant temperature. Calculate the final pressure in the flask?
