A rigid vessel contains a 20% rich mixture of carbon monoxide and air at a temperature of 700°K and a pressure of 8.6 atmospheres absolute. The mixture is ignited and burns without heat loss to a temperature of 3,000°K.
Calculate:
(a) The degree of dissociation of the carbon dioxide at 3,000°K.
(b) The equilibrium constant

If the dissociated products are now cooled to 700°K, at which temperature the equilibrium constant as defined above is very large, what will be the composition of the products at 700°K and how much heat must be transferred per kilogram mol of the original mixture?
