Given the following balanced equation, if the rate of O2 loss is 3.64 × 10-3 M/s, what is the rate of formation of SO3? 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2 SO3(g) Given the following balanced equation, if the rate of O2 loss is 3.64 × 10-3 M/s, what is the rate of formation of SO3? 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2 SO3(g) 3.64 × 10-3 M/s 6.60 × 10-2 M/s 3.99 × 10-3 M/s 7.28 × 10-3 M/s 1.82 × 10-3 M/s

Rate of formation of SO₃ = 7.28 x 10⁻³ M/s

Explanation:

According to equation   2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 SO₃(g)

Rate of disappearance of reactants = rate of appearance of products

                     ⇒  -----------------------------(1)

    Given that the rate of disappearance of oxygen = = 3.64 x 10⁻³ M/s

             So the rate of formation of SO₃ = ?

from equation (1) we can write

                                ⇒ = 2 x 3.64 x 10⁻³ M/s

                                ⇒ = 7.28 x 10⁻³ M/s

∴ So the rate of formation of SO₃ = 7.28 x 10⁻³ M/s

explanation:

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
