Sulfur trioxide reacts with water to form sulfuric acid, a major contributor to acid rain. One origin of SO3 is the combustion of sulfur, which is present in small quantities in coal, according to the following equation. Given the thermochemical information below, determine the heat of reaction for this reaction. 593.6 kJ -493.8 kJ -99.8 kJ S(s) + O2(g) → SO3(g) O-395.3 kJ S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g) ; AH = -296.8 kJ 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2 SO 3(g); AH = -197.0 kJ
