A 2:1 mixture by volume of SO2 and O2 at an initial pressure of 15atm is allowed to reach equilibirum at 250°C. 2SO2(g) + O2(g) <-> 2SO3(g) The equilibirum pressure was found to be 11atm. (i) Calculate the partial pressure of each gas at equilibrium. How to do this question???

The equilibirum pressure was found to be 11atm.
(i) Calculate the partial pressure of each gas at equilibrium.
How to do this question???
SO2 and O2 are in 2:1 ratio by volume and total pressure is 15 atm. So, Pressure of SO2 is 15 x (2/3) = 10 atm; Pressure of O2 is 15 x (1/3) = 5 atm 2 X moles of SO2 combines with X moles of O2 to form 2X moles of SO3. So, the total decrease in number of moles is X. From the given data, X is (15-11) = 4 At equilibrium, partial pressure of SO2 is 10-2X= 10 – 8 = 2 atm At equilibrium, partial pressure of O2 is 5-X= 5 – 4 = 1 atm At equilibrium, partial pressure of SO3 is 2X= 8 atm
SO2 and O2 are in 2:1 ratio by volume and total pressure is 15 atm. So, Pressure of SO2 is 15 x (2/3) = 10 atm; Pressure of O2 is 15 x (1/3) = 5 atm
2 X moles of SO2 combines with X moles of O2 to form 2X moles of SO3. So, the total decrease in number of moles is X.
From the given data, X is (15-11) = 4
At equilibrium, partial pressure of SO2 is 10-2X= 10 – 8 = 2 atm
At equilibrium, partial pressure of O2 is 5-X= 5 – 4 = 1 atm
At equilibrium, partial pressure of SO3 is 2X= 8 atm
