In the following reaction: \[2S{{O}_{2}}(g)+{{O}_{2}}(g)2S{{O}_{3}}(g)\] the equilibrium is not attained. The rate of forward reaction is greater than that of backward reaction. Thus, which of the following is the correct relation between \[{{K}_{p}}\] and \[{{Q}_{p}}\]?

A) \[{{K}_{p}}={{Q}_{p}}\]

B) \[{{Q}_{p}}>{{K}_{p}}\]

C) \[{{Q}_{p}}<{{K}_{p}}\]

D) \[{{K}_{p}}={{Q}_{p}}=1\]
