Question
The reaction between gaseous sulfur dioxide and oxygen is a key step in the industrial synthesis of sulfuric acid:
2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g)2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g)
A mixture of SO2 and O2 was maintained at 800 K until the system reached equilibrium. The equilibrium mixture contained 5.0 × 10−2 M SO3, 3.5 × 10−3 M O2, and 3.0 × 10−3 M SO2. Calculate K and Kp at this temperature.
