Explanation / Answer

We Know that :       The given Reaction is :          Fe2O3 (s) +3COg) --> 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g)       Grxn. = G products   - G reactants                    = 2 ( 0 ) + 3 ( -394.4 ) ] KJ - [-742.2 + 3 ( -137.2 ) ] KJ                      =   -29.4 KJ              G = -RTlnK           -29.4 KJ = -8.314 x 10-3KJ / mol-K x 298K lnK                  K = 1.42 x 105
