Question

96g of Sulphur reacts with 36g of carbon according to the following equation and produces carbon disulphide.
2S+C-----CS2
Calculate the following and identify the limiting reagent in this reaction
1. The mass of CS2 produced 2. The excess amount of reagent in gram that is left unreacted.
Given mass of S=96g
Molar mass of S=32g
Please answer it within hour. I need is urgently. Help!

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

• The mass of CS₂ produced= 114 g

• The excess amount of reagent in gram that is left unreacted= 12 g
• the limiting reagent in this reaction = sulphur
