Chapter 14, Problem 79E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The temperature of the reaction, the total pressure at equilibrium for the reaction and the mole fraction of one of the reactant is given. The value of $K_{\text{p}}$ is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:
The value of $K_{\text{p}}$ is calculated by the formula,
   $K_{\text{p}}=\frac{{\left(P_{{\text{SO}}_3}\right)}^2}{{\left(P_{{\text{SO}}_2}\right)}^2\times \left(P_{{\text{O}}_2}\right)}$

To determine:

The total pressure at equilibrium for the given reaction.
