Sulfur dioxide reacts with oxygen producing sulfur trioxide

SO₂+2 02-> SO

In order to ensure complete reaction, twice as much oxygen is supplied than that required theoretically. However, only 60% conversion obtained. The pressure was 500 kPa and temperature 800 K. 100 kg of SO₂ is charged to the converter. Determine the following:

a) The volume of pure oxygen supplied at 1.5 bar and 300 K.

b) The volume of sulfur trioxide produced.

c) The volume of gases leaving the converter

d) The composition of gases leaving the converter.

e) The average molecular weight of the gas leaving the converter
