For a reaction, 2 S O 2 ( g ) + O 2 ( g ) 2 S O 3 ( g )  , 1.5 moles of S O 2 and 1 mole of O 2 are taken in a 2 L vessel. At equilibrium the concentration of S O 3 was found to be 0.35 mol L - 1 . The for the reaction would be 
  1. 5.1 L  m o l - 1
  2.  0.6 L  m o l - 1
  3.  2.95 L  m o l - 1
  4. 1.4 L  m o l - 1
