Consider the following reaction that occurs in air with a pressure of 1.013 bar. One can assume that there is 1 mole of SO with 0.5 moles of O2 (with air at 21% O2) fed to the reactor. SO2 (g) + 0.5 Oz (g) SO3 (g) (a) Find an expression for K in terms of composition and pressure. (b) Considering the temperature dependence of the reaction, what are the value for Ka at 0, 400 and 1000C? (c) Determine the extent of reaction and gas phase composition for the conditions in part b.
