Solution

The correct option is C $0.2$
For the given reaction,
$2 S O_{2} + O_{2} \to 2 S O_{3}$
$K_{p}$ can be calculated as,
$K_{p} = \frac{[P_{S O_{3}}^{2}]}{[P_{S O_{2}}]^{2} \times [P_{O_{2}}]}$
As given,
$[P_{S O_{3}}] = [P_{S O_{2}}]$
So,
$5 = \frac{1}{[P_{O_{2}}]}$
$⟹ [P_{O_{2}}] = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2 a t m$
