The mass of sulfur dioxide produced is 2.125 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of FeS_2 = 2 g

Molar mass of FeS_2 = 120 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of }FeS_2=\frac{2g}{120g/mol}=0.0166mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of FeS_2 and oxygen gas follows:

4FeS_2+11O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3+8SO_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of FeS_2 produces 8 moles of sulfur dioxide

So, 0.0166 moles of FeS_2 will produce = \frac{8}[4}\times 0.0166=0.0332mol of sulfur dioxide

Now, calculating the mass of sulfur dioxide from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of sulfur dioxide = 64 g/mol

Moles of sulfur dioxide = 0.0332 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.0332mol=\frac{\text{Mass of sulfur dioxide}}{64g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of sulfur dioxide}=(0.0332mol\times 64g/mol)=2.125g
