Question

For    the    catalyzed    formation    of    SO3 according    to    the    reaction
2SO2 +    O2(g)    ⇌ 2SO3
If    192    g    of    SO2 and    48.0    g    of    O2 were    mixed    in    a    15.0    L    container    at    800    K
Assuming    that    ∆H°    and    ∆S°    are    independent    of    temperature    
a) Calculate    the    equilibrium    partial    pressures    of    all    species    in    the    container
b) If    the    temperature    is    increased    to    1000    K    how    will    that    affect    the    yield    of    
SO3?    Explain and show all work please
