$ Cal $ Most suitable condition for the higher production of $ SO_3 $ is [NCERT 1974; DPMT 1983, 89; IIT 1981; MP PET 1992; MP PMT 1990, 91, 94, 99; CPMT 1973, 77, 84, 89, 94, 99]
Options:
A) High temperature and high pressure
B) High temperature and low pressure
C) Low temperature and high pressure
D) Low temperature and low pressure
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
Reaction is exothermic and volume is decreasing from left to right so for higher production of $ SO_3 $ there should be low temperature and high pressure.
