thickness of magma

Volcanic eruptions can be non-explosive or explosive depending on the thickness of the magma.

What is the effect of adding a catalyst on the equilibrium position of a redox reaction between iron(III) oxide and carbon monoxide, where iron is reduced and carbon is oxidized according to the following equation?Fe2O3 + 3CO ⇆ 2Fe + 3CO2 Calculate the equilibrium constant (Kp) of the reaction at 298 K in the presence and absence of a catalyst. Explain whether or not the presence of the catalyst will affect the position of equilibrium and justify the answer with relevant calculations.

Determine the standard electrode potential, given that the standard reduction potential for the half-reaction, Ag+ (aq) + e- → Ag(s) is +0.80 V and the standard oxidation potential for the half-reaction, Fe(s) → Fe2+(aq) + 2e-, is -0.44 V. Using this information, predict whether or not the reaction Ag(s) + Fe2+(aq) → Fe(s) + Ag+(aq) will occur spontaneously under standard conditions.

How does altering the pressure affect the equilibrium position in a reversible chemical reaction, and what are the factors that determine whether the reaction will shift to the side with a greater number of moles of gas or to the side with a lesser number of moles of gas? Provide an explanation using an example of a gaseous reaction.
