    Using the following thermochemical equations (i) \[S(rh)+3/2{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}S{{O}_{3}}(g)\]                                                 \[\Delta H=-2x\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] (ii) \[S{{O}_{2}}(g)+1/2{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{3}}(g)\]                                                 \[\Delta H=-y\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] Find out the heat of formation of\[S{{O}_{2}}(g)\]in kJ\[mo{{l}^{-1}}\].

    A) \[(2x+y)\]       

    B)        \[(x+y)\]

    C) \[(2x/y)\]         

    D)        \[(y-2x)\]

    E)  \[(2x-y)\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given \[S(rh)+\frac{3}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}S{{O}_{3}}(g);\] \[\Delta H=-2x\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]            ...(i)                 \[S{{O}_{2}}(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}S{{O}_{3}}(g);\] \[\Delta H=-y\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]            ...(ii) \[S(s)+{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{2}}(g);\]          \[\Delta H=?\]   Subtract Eq (ii) from Eq (i) \[S(rh)+\frac{3}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{3}}(g);\] \[\Delta H=-2x\text{ }kJ\text{ }mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[S{{O}_{2}}(g)+\frac{1}{2}{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{3}}(g);\]                                                 \[\Delta H=-y\,kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[\underline{-\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,+\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}\] \[S(rh)+\left( \frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2} \right){{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{2}}(g);\]\[\Delta H=(-2x+y)\] \[kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\] \[S(rh)+{{O}_{2}}(g)\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}S{{O}_{2}}(g);\]          \[\Delta H=(y-2x)kJ\,mo{{l}^{-1}}\]
