The correct option is A low temperature, high pressure
According to Le-chatelier's principle, if the temperature of the system is changed (increased or decreased) the equilibrium shifts in opposite direction in order to neutralise the effect of change in temperature.
2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g);△Ho=−198 kJ
Since the enthalpy is negative, the reaction is exothermic.
If the temperature of the reaction mixture is decreased, the equilibirum will get shifted to the right (towards product) in order to neutralise the effect of decrease in temperature.
2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g)
Change in moles =Product moles-reactant moles=2−3=−1
Moles are decreased.
According to "Le-chatellier's principle",
increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium in the direction of decreasing gaseous moles towards the formation of sulfur trioxide.
So, the favourable condition for the reaction is low temperature and high pressure.
