O2 and SO2 gases are filled in ratio of 1:3 by moles in a closed container of 3L at temperature of 27∘C. If the partial pressure of O2 is 0.54atm, then the concentration of SO2(inmolL−1) would be (R=0.082LatmK−1mol−1)

Solution
The correct option is B0.066 We have PO2=XO2×Ptotal∴0.54=nO2nO2+nSO2×Ptotal 0.54=nO2nO2+3nO2×Ptotal∴0.54=14×Ptotal∴Ptotal=0.54×4=2.16atm∵PO2+PSO2=2.16atm⇒PSO2=2.16−PO2=2.16−0.54=1.62atm ∴Concentration of SO2=1.620.082×300=0.066
