Question
A student ran the following reaction in the laboratory at 1080 K:

\[ 2\text{SO}_3(g) \rightleftharpoons 2\text{SO}_2(g) + \text{O}_2(g) \]

When he introduced \(\text{SO}_3(g)\) at a pressure of 0.886 atm into a 1.00 L evacuated container, he found the equilibrium partial pressure of \(\text{SO}_3(g)\) to be 0.340 atm.

Calculate the equilibrium constant, \( K_p \), he obtained for this reaction.

\[ K_p = \] [Input field]
