Question:

As we saw in Section 20.2, the reduction of iron oxides is accomplished by using carbon monoxide as a reducing agent. Starting with coke in a blast furnace, the following equilibrium plays a key role in the extraction of iron:
C(s) + CO2(g) ⇌ 2CO(g)
Use the data in Appendix 3 to calculate the equilibrium constant at 25°C and 1000°C. Assume ΔH° and ΔS° to be independent of temperature.
