Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

5 moles of Sulphur dioxide will be evolved when 5 moles of Sulphur is reacted with Oxygen.

Explanation:

We first Write down the equation of the reaction between Sulphur and Oxygen.

The equation is given as:

S + O₂ ---------> SO₂

The mole ratio of Sulphur and Sulphur dioxide is 1 : 1

Therefore, we have same number of moles for Sulphur and Sulphur dioxide.

The moles of Sulphur reacted with Oxygen is 5 moles, and so, the moles of Sulphur dioxide produced is 5 moles.

Answer 2

$\huge \tt S \: + \: {O}_2 \: \longrightarrow \: \: {SO}_2$

• 5 moles of Sulphur Dioxide is Produced
