Answer:
kp= 3.1 x 10^(-2)
Explanation:
To solve this problem we have to write down the reaction and use the ICE table for pressures:
2SO2 + O2 ⇄ 2SO3
Initial 3.4 atm 1.3 atm 0 atm
Change -2x - x + 2x
Equilibrium 3.4 - 2x 1.3 -x 0.52 atm
In order to know the x value:
2x = 0.52
x=(0.52)/2= 0.26
2SO2 + O2 ⇄ 2SO3
Equilibrium 3.4 - 0.52 1.3 - 0.26 0.52 atm
Equilibrium 2.88 atm 1.04 atm 0.52 atm
with the partial pressure in the equilibrium, we can obtain Kp.
