Given that the reactants are the very consituents (elements)  of the final compound, the enthalpy change of this reaction is the same  heat of formation, Hf.

That means that the enthalpy chage for the reaction is -296.8 kj/mol

Answer : The enthalpy change for the reaction is -296.8 kJ/mol

Explanation :

Enthalpy change : It is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(reactant)]

The equilibrium reaction follows:

S(s)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons SO_2(g)

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

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))})-(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(S(s))}+1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))})

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(SO_2(g))}=-296.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(O_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(S(s))}=0kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=(1\times -296.8)-(1\times 0+1\times 0)=-296.8kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the reaction is -296.8 kJ/mol

How many unpaired electrons would you expect on iron in [fe(h2o6] 3+?
MrMuchimi
The iron (III) has 5 valence electrons and the complex is in a octahedral geometry. Since water as a ligand has a small splitting energy, the complex will be a high spin and all of the five electrons will be unpaired.
