Detailed Solution

It is given to calculate the value of KC.

 K(C)=[SO2]2[O2][SO3]2

 2SO3(g)2SO2(g)+O2(g)

KMnO4+SO2Mn2++SO3

0.2 moles of KMnO4 in acidic medium oxidize 0.5 moles of SO2.

So, equivalent of KMnO4 = no. of equivalent of SO2

0.2×5=2x×2

x = 0.25

K(C)=[2×0.25]2[0.25][1-2(0.25)]2

K(C) = 0.125

Hence, the answer is 0.125.
