Question

At T(K), the partial pressures of $S O_{2}, O_{2}$ and $S O_{3}$ are 0.662, 0.100 and 0.331 atm, respectively for the reaction ${2 S O_{2}}_{(g)} + {O_{2}}_{(g)} ⇌ {2 S O_{3}}_{(g)}$ at equilibrium. What is the partial pressure in atm, of $O_{2}$ when the equilibrium partial pressures of $S O_{2}$ and $S O_{3}$ are equal at the same temperature ?

Solution

The correct option is A 0.4
$K_{P} = \frac{P_{S O_{3}}^{2}}{P_{S O_{2}}^{2} P_{O_{2}}}$
$K_{P} = \frac{(0.331)^{2}}{(0.662)^{2} \times 0.100} = 2.5$
When $P_{S O_{2}} = P_{S O_{3}}$
$K_{P} = \frac{P_{S O_{3}}^{2}}{P_{S O_{2}}^{2} P_{O_{2}}} = \frac{1}{P_{O_{2}}} = 0.4$ atm.

Hence, the option A is the correct answer.
