The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the given reactions and their equilibrium constants. ### Step 1: Write down the reactions and their equilibrium constants. 1. **Reaction 1:** \[ 2 \text{NO} + \text{O}_2 \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{NO}_2 \quad (K_{c1}) \] The equilibrium constant \( K_{c1} \) is given by: \[ K_{c1} = \frac{[\text{NO}_2]^2}{[\text{NO}]^2 [\text{O}_2]} \] 2. **Reaction 2:** \[ \text{NO}_2 + \text{SO}_2 \rightleftharpoons \text{SO}_3 + \text{NO} \quad (K_{c2}) \] The equilibrium constant \( K_{c2} \) is given by: \[ K_{c2} = \frac{[\text{SO}_3][\text{NO}]}{[\text{NO}_2][\text{SO}_2]} \] 3. **Reaction 3:** \[ 2 \text{SO}_3 \rightleftharpoons 2 \text{SO}_2 + \text{O}_2 \quad (K_{c3}) \] The equilibrium constant \( K_{c3} \) is given by: \[ K_{c3} = \frac{[\text{SO}_2]^2 [\text{O}_2]}{[\text{SO}_3]^2} \] ### Step 2: Analyze the options. We need to check which of the given options is correct based on the relationships between the equilibrium constants. #### Option A: \( K_{c3} = K_{c1} \times K_{c2} \) - Calculate \( K_{c1} \times K_{c2} \): \[ K_{c1} \times K_{c2} = \left(\frac{[\text{NO}_2]^2}{[\text{NO}]^2 [\text{O}_2]}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_3][\text{NO}]}{[\text{NO}_2][\text{SO}_2]}\right) \] After simplification, we find that this does not equal \( K_{c3} \). #### Option B: \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2}^2 = 1 \) - Calculate \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2}^2 \): \[ K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2}^2 = \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_2]^2 [\text{O}_2]}{[\text{SO}_3]^2}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{NO}_2]^2}{[\text{NO}]^2 [\text{O}_2]}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_3]^2 [\text{NO}]^2}{[\text{NO}_2]^2 [\text{SO}_2]}\right) \] After simplification, all terms cancel out, resulting in 1. Therefore, Option B is correct. #### Option C: \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2} = 1 \) - Calculate \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2} \): \[ K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2} = \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_2]^2 [\text{O}_2]}{[\text{SO}_3]^2}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{NO}_2]^2}{[\text{NO}]^2 [\text{O}_2]}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_3][\text{NO}]}{[\text{NO}_2][\text{SO}_2]}\right) \] After simplification, this does not equal 1. #### Option D: \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1}^2 \times K_{c2} = 1 \) - Calculate \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1}^2 \times K_{c2} \): \[ K_{c3} \times K_{c1}^2 \times K_{c2} = \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_2]^2 [\text{O}_2]}{[\text{SO}_3]^2}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{NO}_2]^4}{[\text{NO}]^4 [\text{O}_2]^2}\right) \times \left(\frac{[\text{SO}_3][\text{NO}]}{[\text{NO}_2][\text{SO}_2]}\right) \] After simplification, this does not equal 1. ### Conclusion The only correct option is **B**: \( K_{c3} \times K_{c1} \times K_{c2}^2 = 1 \).
