Detailed Solution

Following is the given equilibrium,The volume of the container is not given let us assume it to be 1 litLet the moles of O2 to be introduced so that the moles of SO3 becomes 3 at equilibrium be x.Again,                    Now, 2 +2 y = 3 ⇒ y = 12   and at same temperature KC remains constant, equating both Kc  values
