Question - When the oxide of generic metal M is heated at 25.0 degrees Celsius, only a negligible amount of M is produced. MO2(s) -> M(s) + O2(g). Delta G =291 kj/mol
When this reaction is coupled to the conversion of graphite to carbon dioxide, it becomes spontaneous.
What is the thermodynamic equilibrium constant for the coupled reaction? What is K?
Please perform what you can and illustrate your work so I can follow. Thanks
