Question

Question: The reaction \(2 \mathrm { SO } _ { 2 } + \mathrm { O } _ { 2 }\) \(2 \mathrm { SO } _ { 3 }\)+ Heat...

The reaction 2SO2+O22 \mathrm { SO } _ { 2 } + \mathrm { O } _ { 2 } 2SO32 \mathrm { SO } _ { 3 }+ Heat, will be favoured by.

A

High temperature and low pressure

B

Low temperature and high pressure

C

High temperature and high pressure

D

Low temperature and low pressure.

Answer

Low temperature and high pressure

Explanation

Solution

: Since reaction is exothermic it is favoured at low temperature. There is a decrease in number of moles hence reaction is favoured at high pressure.
