For the reaction $SO_{2(g)} + 1/2 O_{2(g)} \rightleftharpoons SO_{3(g)}$,the equilibrium constant is $K_1$ at $298 \, K$. For the reaction $2SO_{3(g)} \rightleftharpoons 2SO_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)}$ at the same temperature,the equilibrium constant is $K_2$. Then,which of the following is correct?

  • A
    $K_1 = K_2$
  • B
    $K_2 = K_1^2$
  • C
    $K_2 = 1/K_1^2$
  • D
    $K_2 = 1/K_1$
