A gaseous mixture consisting of 1.1 mmol SO 2 and 2.2 mmol O 2 in a 250-mL

Question:

A gaseous mixture consisting of 1.1 mmol SO2 and 2.2 mmol O2 in a 250-mL container was heated to 500. K and allowed to reach equilibrium. Will more sulfur trioxide be formed if that equilibrium mixture is cooled to 298 K? For the reaction 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2 SO3(g), K = 2.5 * 1010 at 500. K and 4.0 * 1024 at 298 K.
