Q. Formation of $SO_{3}from\ SO_{2}and\ O_{2}$ is favoured by

A) Increase in pressure
B) Decrease in pressure
C) Increase in temperature
D) Decrease in temperature
Explanation

(a)
[image:7_image14.emf]
Formation of $SO_{3}\ (sulphur\ trioxide)$from$\ SO_{2}$and$\ O_{2}$ is accompanied by decrease in volume. So, increase in pressure favours $SO_{3}$ formation (also due to Le-Chatelier’s principle).
