Answer:
Kp = 0.049
Explanation:
The equilibrium in question is;
2 SO₂ (g) + O₂ (g) ⇄ 2 SO₃ (g)
Kp = p SO₃² / ( p SO₂² x p O₂ )
The initial pressures are given, so lets set up the ICE table for the equilibrium:
atm SO₂ O₂ SO₃
I 3.3 0.79 0
C -2x -x 2x
E 3.3 - 2x 0.79 - x 2x
We are told 2x = partial pressure of SO₃ is 0.47 atm at equilibrium, so we can determine the partial pressures of SO₂ and O₂ as follows:
p SO₂ = 3.3 -0.47 atm = 2.83 atm
p O₂ = 0.79 - (0.47/2) atm = .56 atm
Now we can calculate Kp:
Kp = 0.47² /[ ( 2.83 )² x 0.56 ] = 0.049 ( rounded to 2 significant figures )
Note that we have extra data in this problem we did not need since once we setup the ICE table for the equilibrium we realize we have all the information needed to solve the question.

I can't actually answer this one if the empirical formula is not given. Luckily, I've found a similar problem from another website. The problem is shown in the picture attached. It shows that the empirical formula is CH₂O. Let's calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula.
Molar mass of E.F = 12 + 2(1) + 16 = 30 g/mol
Then, let's divide this to the molar mass of the molecular formula.
Molar mass of M.F/Molar mass of E.F = 180/30 = 6
Therefore, let's multiply 6 to each subscript in the empirical formula to determine the actual molecular formula.
<em>Actual molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆</em>
