Answer: The enthalpy of formation of SO_3 is  -396 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Calculating the enthalpy of formation of SO_3

The chemical equation for the combustion of propane follows:

2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_3(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))})+(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))}=-297kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-198kJ

Putting values in above equation, we get:

-198=[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_3(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta -297)+(1\times (0))]\\\\\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_3(g))}=-396kJ/mol

The enthalpy of formation of SO_3 is -396 kJ/mol

How to determine whether an element is paramagnetic or diamagnetic?
givi [52]
To determine whether an element is paramagnetic or diamagnetic, you need to examine the electron configuration of the element. If it has unpaired electrons, then the substance is paramagnetic. If the electrons are paired, then it is diamagnetic.
