Hello can someone solve this problem for me and try to show as much work, calculation and reasoning as possible. Assume that you are trying to show how the problem can be solved to another student who does not understand what you are doing.

1. Trimethyl aluminum polymerizes in the gas phase according to the following equation:
 2 (CH3)3Al <---> (CH3)6Al2
 
At 100 degree C and a total pressure of 97.2mm Hg the observed density of the vapor of trimethyl aluminum is .536 g/L. Calculate the equilibrium constant for this reaction.

Ironically, that's normally what the forum mods expect of the poster.  You turned it around.
