QJEEM23Ch06c3: JEE Main 2023 Chemistry - Class 11 JEEM23Ch06c3 Solution: Consider the following equation: The number of factors which…

Consider the following equation:

2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g),ΔH=−190 kJ2 \mathrm{SO}_{2}(g)+\mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2 \mathrm{SO}_{3}(g), \Delta H=-190 \mathrm{~kJ}

The number of factors which will increase the yield of SO3\mathrm{SO}_{3} at equilibrium from the following is _______.

A. Increasing temperature

B. Increasing pressure

C. Adding more SO2\mathrm{SO}_{2}

D. Adding more O2\mathrm{O}_{2}

E. Addition of catalyst

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

2SO2+O2⇌2SO3  ΔH=−190 kJ\mathrm{2SO_2+O_2\rightleftharpoons 2SO_3~~\Delta H=-190~kJ}

It is an exothermic reaction

∴\therefore factor B, C, D will increase the amount of SO 3_3 .
