An engineer examining the oxidation of SO2 in the manufacture

of sulfuric acid determines thatKC=1.7108at 600. K:

2SO2(g)+O2(g)2SO3(g)

(a) At equilibrium,PSO3=300.atmandPO2=100.atm.CalculatePSO2

(b) The engineer places a mixture of 0.0040 mol of SO2(g) and 0.0028 mol of O2(g) in a 1.0-L container and raises the temperature to 1000 K. At equilibrium, 0.0020 mol of SO3(g) is present. Calculate Kc and for this reaction at 1000. K.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Partial pressure of SO2 is 1.6149 atm
  2. Equilibrium constant is solved using given concentration of reactant and product and the resultant value is 7.0脳104. Ideal gas law is rearranged to find the value for Pso2 ie,0.3284 atm

Step by step solution

01

Partial pressure of SO2

Given balance chemical equation is shown below:

2SO2g+O2g2SO3g

Given data:KC= 1.7脳108

PSO3= 300.atm

PO2= 100.atm

To find the partial pressure of SO2, equation in terms of Kp is defined as,

KP=PSO32PSO22PO2 (1)

We need to find the value of kp using Kc given above:

KP=KcRTn (2)

Were,n=2-3=-1

KP= 1.7脳1080.082脳1600- 1

= 3.451脳106atm

Substituting the value of Kp in equation 1 we get,

3.451脳106atm =300.atm2PSO22100.atm

PSO22=300.atm23.451脳106补迟尘脳100.atm

= 2.6079 atm

PSO2=2.6079= 1.6149 atm

02

Calculating equilibrium constant and partial pressure of SO2

Equilibrium constant, KC=SO32SO22O2

=0.002020.004020.0028

= 7.0脳104

Thus, Kc is calculated, and it is7.0脳104

Partial pressure ossf the reactant SO2 can be determined using the ideal gas law given below:

PV = nRTie, P =nvRT

PSO2= 0.0040molL脳0.0821L. atmmol. k脳1000碍

= 0.3284 atm

Hence partial pressure of SO2 is 0.3284atm

In the 1980s, CFC-11 was one of the most heavily produced chlorofluorocarbons. The last step in its formation is

CCI4(g)+HF(g)CFCI3(g)+HCI(g)

equal concentrations of CFCI3and HCl at equilibrium. Are the final

concentrations of CFCI3and HCl equal if you start with unequal

concentrations ofCCI4 and HF? Explain.
