Answer:

A. K = 4.7; product favored

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced reaction at equilibrium

O₂(g) + 2 SO₂(g) ⇄ 2 SO₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the concentration equilibrium constant (Kc)

The equilibrium constant, Kc, is the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of products over the equilibrium concentrations of reactants each raised to the power of their stoichiometric coefficients.

Kc = [SO₃]² / [SO₂]² × [O₂]

Kc = 1.9² / 0.80² × 1.2 = 4.7

When Kc > 1, the products are favored.
