MCQ Practice

In multistage equilibrium conversion of SO 2 to SO 3 (2SO 2 + O 2 ⇋ 2SO 3 ), the reverse reaction becomes appreciable at a temperature of 550°C. The percentage equilibrium conversion of SO 2 to SO 3 can be increased by

Subject: Chemical EngineeringTopic: Chemical Process

Increasing the oxygen concentration

Putting more quantity of V 2 O 5 catalyst in the converter

Removing some quantity of SO 3 during intermediate stage

Maintaining low temperature & pressure in the converter

Correct Answer: C
