Question

Calculate how many moles of sulfur dioxide will be evolved when 5moles of sulfur is reacted with oxygen

Answer 1

Dear Student,

● Answer -

5 moles of sulphur dioxide

● Explanation -

Reaction for combustion of sulphur is calculated by -

S + O2 --> SO2

This means 1 mole of sulphur and 1 mole of oxygen produces 1 mole of sulphur dioxide.

Hence, 5 moles of sulphur when reacted with oxygen gives 5 moles of sulphur dioxide.

Thanks dear. Hope this is helpful to you..

Answer 2

Answer :

Reaction

$\Large{\rm{S \: + \: O_2 \: \to \: SO_{2}}}$

By watching the above reaction we come to know that ,

1 mole of Sulphur and 1 mole of Di - Oxygen react with each other to form 1 mole of the Sulphur Dioxide .

If we are taking 5 moles of Sulphur

Then reaction will be

$\Large{\rm {5S \: + \: 5O_2 \: \to \: 5SO_2}}$

So,

we come to know that 5 mol of sulphur will produce 5 mol of Sulphur Dioxide .
