The equilibrium constant for a reaction decreases as temperature increases. Explain how this observation is used to determine the sign of either H or S.
If wet silver carbonate is dried in a stream of hot air. the air must have a certain concentration level of carbon dioxide to prevent silver carbonate from decomposing by the reaction Ag2CO3(s)Ag2O(s)+CO2(g) H for this reaction is 79.14 kJ/mol in the temperature range of 25 to 125C. Given that the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in equilibrium with pure solid silver carbonate is 6.23 103 torr at 25C, calculate the partial pressure of CO2 necessary to prevent decomposition ofAg2CO3 at 110C.
