Chapter 3.3, Problem 3CP

Which is the correctly balanced form of the given equation?

$\text{S}\left(s\right)+{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(g\right)\to {\text{SO}}_{\text{2}}\left(g\right)$

a)

$\text{S}\left(s\right)+{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(g\right)\to {\text{SO}}_3\left(g\right)$

b) $\text{3S}\left(s\right)+6{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(g\right)\to 3{\text{SO}}_2\left(g\right)$

c)

$\text{3S}\left(s\right)+{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(g\right)\to 3{\text{SO}}_2\left(g\right)$

d)

$\text{3S}\left(s\right)+2{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(g\right)\to {\text{SO}}_2\left(g\right)$

e)

$\text{3S}\left(s\right)+2{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(g\right)\to 3{\text{SO}}_2\left(g\right)$
