Well, we address the stoichiometric equation...
Explanation:
And
But you have not told us how much sulfur trioxide you get, so we cannot address the yield.
Certainly you have stoichiometric quantities of sulfur and dioxygen. The industrial preparation of sulfur trioxide takes sulfur dioxide, and combines this with dioxygen over a catalytic surface...
