The unbalanced equation is
There are 4 O atoms on the left and 3 on the right.
Hence, we will multiply 2 on both SO2 and SO3 to balance the equation as follows:
Now, for a generic reaction, , the standard free energy change is calculated as follows:
Hence, for our reaction, we can write the expression free energy change as follows:
Note: above we have used the fact that free energy of formation of O2 is zero since it is in standard state already.
Now the standard free energy change is related to the equilibrium constant as follows:
Note that the standard condition temperature, T = 298.15 K
Hence,
Now, given the following initial moles
Now, we can create the following ICE table to find the equilibrium concentrations.
Initial, mol | 0.45 | 0.30 | 0.50 |
Change, mol | -2x | -x | +2x |
Equilibrium, mol | 0.45-2x | 0.30-x | 0.50+2x |
Note that all are gaseous species and share the same volume. Hence, their moles are proportional to concentrations and we can take their concentrations in calculating the equilibrium constant expression.
Hence, we can write the expression of Kc as follows from the ICE table,
Hence, the equilibrium compositions of species can be calculated as follows:
Hence, finally at equilibrium we have 0 mol of SO2, 0.075 mol of O2 and 0.95 mol of SO3.
