Solution

The correct option is C SO3 and SO2
On heating, ferrous sulphate crystals lose water and anhydrous ferrous sulphate FeSO4 is formed. So their colour changes from light green to white. On further heating, anhydrous ferrous sulphate decomposes to form ferric oxide (Fe2O3), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and sulphur trioxide (SO3).
