Ni+4CO=NI(CO)4

Question

this reaction separates nickel from other solid impurities.Starting with 86.4g NI,calculte the pressure of NI(CO)4 in a container of volume 4.00L

Answer 1

Convert 86.4 g Ni to moles(moles = g/molar mass), using the coefficients in the balanced equation convert moles Ni to moles Ni(CO)4, then use PV = nRT to determine pressure.
