    The values of heat of formation of \[S{{O}_{2}}\] and \[S{{O}_{3}}\] are 298.2 kJ and 98.2kJ. The heat of this reaction will be \[S{{O}_{2}}+1/2{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{3}}\]:

    A)  - 396.2 kJ      

    B)  -200 kJ

    C)  -356.2 kJ     

    D)  +200kJ

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Use Hesss law to find the heat of reaction. Given: \[S(s)+{{O}_{2}}(g)\to S{{O}_{2}}(g)\,;\,\Delta H=-298.2\,kJ\] ... (i) \[S(s)+\frac{3}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\to S{{O}_{3}}(g)\,;\,\Delta H=-98.2\,kJ\]...(ii) \[S{{o}_{2}}(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\to S{{O}_{3}}(g),\,\,\Delta H=?\] Subtracting Eq. (i) from Eq. (ii) we get \[S{{O}_{2}}(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\to S{{O}_{3}}(g)\] \[\Delta H=-98.2-(-298.2)=200\,kJ\]
