A 10 litre box contains O3 and O2 at equilibrium at 2000K. Kp=4×1014atm for 2O3(g)⇌3O2(g). Assume that PO2>>PO3 and if total pressure is 8atm, then partial pressure of O3 will be:

Solution
The correct option is B11.3×10−7atm
According to question:
The total pressure is 8atm.
⇒PO2+PO3=8atm
But it is given that PO2>>PO3
⇒PO2=8atm since pressure of O3 is negligible compared to O2
