Question

Given that the equilibrium constant for the reaction $2SO_2(g) + O_2(g) \rightleftharpoons 2SO_3(g)$ has a value of 278 at a particular temperature. What is the value of the equilibrium constant for the following reaction at the same temperature ?
$SO_3(g) \rightleftharpoons SO_2(g) + \frac{1}{2} O_2(g)$
(a) 1.8 × 10⁻³
(b) 3.6 × 10⁻³
(c) 6.0 × 10⁻²
(d) 1.3 × 10⁻⁵
