1) The Equilibrium constant Kp for the reaction
2SO2(g) + O2(g) --- 2SO3(g)
Is 5.60 x 10^4 at 350 degrees C. The initial pressures of SO2 is 0.350 atm and the initial pressure of O2 is 0.762 atm at 350 degrees C. When a mixture equillibtrates, is the total pressure less than or greater than the sum of the initial pressures (1.112 atm)?

2) You are working as a lab assistant and are tasked to prepare an acetic acid - sodium acetate buffer solution with a pH of 4.00 ± 0.02. What molar ratio of CH3COOH to CH3COONa should be used?

3) The equilibrium constant Kc for the reaction
