Reaction at 25.0oC CO(g) + NO(g) → CO2(g) + N2(g) starts with the following initial partial pressures: (PCO2)0 = 0.50 atm, (PN2)0= 0.60 atm, (PCO)0= 5.0×10–35 atm, and (PNO)0 = 5.×10-36 atm. Substance ∆Gof, kJ mol CO2(g) – 394.4 N2(g) 0 CO(g) – 137.3 NO(g) + 86.7 Use the attached standard Gibbs free energies of formation to calculate: (a) KP for the reaction, (b) the immediate Gibbs free energy change for the reaction, ∆Grxn, and (c) check the correct box predicting the direction in which reaction proceeds. Enter your answers with correct units and significant figures, and check the correct box below: Reaction proceeds spontaneously forward towards equilibrium. Reaction is at equilibrium. Reaction proceeds spontaneously backward towards equilibrium.
