Hat is the pressure of CO(g) in equilibrium with the CO2(g) and O2(g) in the atmosphere at 25 C? The partial pressure of O2(g) is 0.2 bar and the partial pressure of CO2(g) is 3 * 10-4 bar. CO is extremely poisonous because it forms a very strong complex with hemoglobin. Should you worry?

The partial pressure of CO is 5.54x10⁻⁴⁹atm. You shouldn't worry because it is very low pressure

Explanation:

First, the balanced reaction is:

CO + 1/2O₂ → CO₂

The energies of formation are:

ΔG(CO)=-137.168kJ/mol

ΔG(O₂)=0

ΔG(CO₂)=-394.359kJ/mol

The energy of the reaction is:

The expression for calculate the partial pressure of CO is:

the answer is the first option

explanation:

just googled it m8. not that hard

lol
