Q.

In the reaction 2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g), 2 moles of SO2 ,1 mole of O2 and 2 moles of SO3 are present in equilibrium. what is the number of moles of O2 be introduced into the vessel to increase the equilibrium moles of SO3 to 3 moles

Detailed Solution

Following is the given equilibrium,

large begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {mathop {}limits_{t = {t_{eq}}} } \ {} end{array}begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{mathop {2S{O_2}left( g right)}limits_2 }_,} + mathop {{O_2}left( g right)}limits_1 rightleftharpoons mathop {2S{O_3}left( g right)}limits_2 } \ {} end{array},

The volume of the container is not given let us assume it to be 1 lit

Let the moles of O2 to be introduced so that the moles of SO3 becomes 3 at equilibrium be x.

Again,

                    

 2SO2+O2
large rightleftharpoons
2SO3(g)
t = teq2-2y 
large 1 + x - y
 2 +2 y

Now, 2 +2 y = 3 ⇒ y = 12   and at same temperature KC remains constant, equating both Kvalues

large {K_C} = frac{{{{left( 3 right)}^2}}}{{left( {frac{1}{2} + x} right){{left( 1 right)}^2}}} = frac{{{2^2}}}{{1 times {2^2}}} = 1
large Rightarrow 9 = frac{1}{2} + x Rightarrow x = 8.5
