Question
Given that the equilibrium constant for the reaction
2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇋ 2SO3(g)
has a value of 278 at a particular temperature. What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the following reaction at the same temperature.
SO3(g) ⇋ SO2(g) + 1/2 O2(g)
2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇋ 2SO3(g)
has a value of 278 at a particular temperature. What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the following reaction at the same temperature.
SO3(g) ⇋ SO2(g) + 1/2 O2(g)
Options
A.1.3 × 10-5
B.1.8 × 10-3
C.1.6 × 10-3
D.6.0 × 10-2
Solution
2SO2 + O2 ⇋ 2SO3
Keq = 278
SO3 ⇋ SO2 + 1/2 O2

Keq = 278
SO3 ⇋ SO2 + 1/2 O2
