Solution
The correct option is B 1.0 mole of SO3 will be produced Finding the limiting reagent: SO2=given moles Stoichiometric coefficient =12=0.5O2=given moles stoichiometric coefficient=11=1 Therefore, SO2 will be the limiting reagent. Amount of O2 consumed = 0.5 mole Amount of SO3 produced = 1 mole
