Summary:
For Reaction #1 (SO2 is product) _ Sorxn = - 84.611 J/K
For Reaction #2 (SO3 is the product) _ Sorxn = - 836.931 J/K
As predicted they are both negative, but Rxn #1 is close to zero, and we would also predict that it would be close to zero, since the number of moles of gaseous molecules did not change from reactant to product.
Calculating the Standard Entropy of Reaction, _Sorxn
