Dear student ,
 
Please copy the question correctly.
 
2SO2  +  O2  --------> 2SO3
 
Rate of the formation of  SO=  Δ [SO3] / Δt = 1.6 * 10-3 kg min-1  
 
and Rate of reaction = – Δ [ SO2 ] / 2 Δt  =   Δ [SO3] / 2 Δt  
 
Therefore , Δ [ SO2 ] / Δt =  Δ [SO3] / Δt  =1.6 * 10-3  kg min-1
 
So, rate at which SO2  reacts = 1.6 * 10-3  kg min-1
