The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
2H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + 3S
Stoichiometry of H₂S to SO₂ is 2:1
Limiting reactant is fully used up in the reaction and amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
Number of H₂S moles - 8.0 g / 34 g/mol = 0.24 mol of H₂S
Number of SO₂ moles = 12.0 g / 64 g/mol = 0.188 mol of SO₂
According to molar ratio of 2:1
If we assume H₂S to be the limiting reactant
2 mol of H₂S reacts with 1 mol of SO₂
Therefore 0.24 mol of H₂S requires - 1/2 x 0.24 = 0.12 mol of SO₂
But 0.188 mol of SO₂ is present therefore SO₂ is in excess and H₂S is the limiting reactant.
H₂S is the limiting reactant
Amount of S produced depends on amount of H₂S present
Stoichiometry of H₂S to S is 2:3
2 mol of H₂S forms 3 mol of S
Therefore 0.24 mol of H₂S forms - 3/2 x 0.24 mol = 0.36 mol of S
Mass of S produced = 0.36 mol x 32 g/mol = 11.5 g of S is produced
Answer: B. a chemical change
Explanation:
Answer:
1. 7 (a neutral solution)
Answer: 10-7= 0.0000001 moles per liter
2. 5.6 (unpolluted rainwater)
Answer: 10-5.6 = 0.0000025 moles per liter
3. 3.7 (first acid rain sample in North America)
Answer: 10-3.7 = 0.00020 moles per liter
The concentration of H+ in the Hubbard Brook sample is 0.00020/0.0000025, which is 80 times higher than the H+ concentration in unpolluted rainwater.
Explanation:
The sample with the lowest AVERAGE kinetic energy is
the coolest one.
The sample with the lowest TOTAL kinetic energy depends on
not only the temperature of the samples, but also on their size,
since each molecule in the sample has kinetic energy.
