Canadian chemists have developed a modern variation of the 1899 Mond process for preparing extremely pure metallic nickel. A sample of impure nickel reacts with carbon monoxide at 508C to form gaseous nickel carbonyl, Ni(CO)4. (a) How many grams of nickel can be converted to the carbonyl with 3.55 m3 of CO at 100.7 kPa? (b) The carbonyl is then decomposed at 21 atm and 1558C to pure (.99.95%) nickel. How many grams of nickel are obtained per cubic meter of the carbonyl? (c) The released carbon monoxide is cooled and collected for reuse by passing it through water at 358C. If the barometric pressure is 769 torr, what volume (in m3) of CO is formed per cubic meter of carbonyl?
