Question

At 627C and one atmosphere pressure SO3 is partially dissociated into SO2 and O2 by SO3(g)12O2(g). The density of the equilibrium mixture is 0.925 g/litre. What is the degree of dissociation?

Solution

Let the molecular mass of the mixture equilibrium be Mmix.
Applying the relation,
Mmix=dRTP=0.925×0.0821×9001=68.348
Molecular mass of SO3=80
Vapour density of O3,D=802=40
vapour density of mixture, d=68.3482=34.174
Let the degree of dissociation be x
x=Dd(n1)d=4034.174(321)×34.174=0.34
or x=34% dissociated
i.e., SO3 is 34% dissociated.
