Solution

The correct option is C K21=K2
The equilibrium constants of the reactions,
SO2(g)+12O2(g)SO3(g) and 2SO2(g)+O2(g)2SO3(g)
are K1 and K2 respectively. The relationship between K1 and K2 is K21=K2. It can also be represented as K1=K1/22.
K1=[SO3][SO2][O2]1/2
K2=[SO3]2[SO2]2[O2]
K2=([SO3][SO2][O2]1/2)2
K2=K21
