The formation of

\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_3}

takes place according to the following reaction,

2\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_2} + {\mathrm{O}_2}\leftrightharpoons2\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_3},\;\Delta H = - 45.2\;\mathrm{kcal}

. The formation of

\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{O}_3}

is favoured by

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Increase in pressure

Option B (Increase in pressure) is correct because, according to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the pressure favors the side with fewer moles of gas, which is the product side in this reaction.
