Be sure to answer all parts.
Heating copper(II) oxide at 400°C does not produce any appreciable amount of Cu:
Cuo() Cu() -0g 4G° - 1272 kmel
127.2 kl'mol
However, if this reaction is coupled to the conversion of graphite to carbon monoside, it becomes
spontaneous. Write an equation for the coupled process and calculate the equilibrium constant for the
coupled reaction. Be sure to include the states of the chemical species.
