Answer:
The partial pressure of SO₃ is 82.0 atm
Explanation:
The equilibrium constant Kp is equal to the equilibrium pressure of the gaseous products raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the equilibrium pressure of the gaseous reactants raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.
For the reaction,
2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 SO₃(g)
[tex]Kp = 0.345 = \frac{(pSO_{3})^{2} }{(pSO_{2})^{2} \times pO_{2} }\\pSO_{3} = \sqrt[]{0.345 \times (pSO_{2})^{2} \times pO_{2} } \\pSO_{3} = \sqrt[]{0.345 \times (35.0)^{2} \times 15.9 } \\pSO_{3} = 82.0 atm[/tex]
