Assume that all the $SO X_{2}$ emitted is oxidised to $SO X_{3}$ and then converted into $H X_{2} SO X_{4}$ . Using $S = 32$ , $O = 16$ , $H = 1$ , the mass of $H X_{2} SO X_{4}$ that can form from 1.00 kg of $SO X_{2}$ is

One mole of

SO X_{2}

(64 g) gives one mole of

H X_{2} SO X_{4}

(98 g). Mass =

1.00 \times 98/64 = 1.53 kg

. The distractors invert the ratio, double it, or assume equal masses.
