Question:

One of the steps in the extraction of iron from its ore (FeO) is the reduction of iron(II) oxide by carbon monoxide at 900°C:
FeO(s) + CO(g) ⇌ Fe(s) + CO2(g)
If CO is allowed to react with an excess of FeO, calculate the mole fractions of CO and CO2 at equilibrium. State any assumptions.
