Question:

In a laboratory studying the extraction of iron metal from iron ore, the following reaction was carried out at 1270 K in a reaction vessel of volume 10.0 L: FeO(s) + CO(g) ⇌ Fe(s) + CO2(g). At equilibrium the partial pressure of CO was 4.24 bar and that of CO2 was 1.71 bar. The pressure of the CO2 was reduced to 0.43 bar by reacting some of it with NaOH and the system was allowed to reach equilibrium again. What will be the partial pressure of each gas once equilibrium is re-established?
