Consider the reaction shown below.
PbCO3(s) PbO(s) + CO2(g)
Calculate the equilibrium pressure of CO2 in the system at the following temperatures.
(a) 210°C atm = _______ atm
(b) 480°C atm = _______ atm
Note: To find the value of the equilibrium constant at each temperature you must first find the value of G0 at each temperature by using the equation G0 = H0 - TS0. For this reaction the values are H0 = +88.3 kJ/mol and S0= 151.3 J/mol*K
