Solution

To calculate the equilibrium constant (K) for the reaction, we use the formula:

K = [Products]^(coefficients) / [Reactants]^(coefficients)

For the given reaction, the equilibrium constant K is given by:

K = [SO3]^2 / ([SO2]^2 * [O2])

Substituting the given equilibrium concentrations into the formula, we get:

K = (0.150)^2 / ((0.940)^2 * 0.430)

Now, calculate the above expression to get the value of K.

K = 0.0225 / (0.8836 * 0.430) = 0.0225 / 0.379948 = 0.0592

So, the closest answer is d. 0.0590.
