In the Mond process for the purification of nickel, carbon monoxide is combined with heated nickel to produce Ni(CO)4, which is a gas and can therefore be separated from solid impurities:

Given that the standard free energies of formation of CO(g) and Ni(CO)4(g) are -137.3 and -587.4 kJ/mol, respectively, calculate the equilibrium constant of the reaction at 80°C. Assume that is temperature independent.
