Question

In a reaction 2SO^2+O^2 -> 2SO^3,32g of S reacts with 32g of O. Then which is the limiting reagent and how many g of S reacts if O is the limiting reagent ?

Answer 1

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

from the balancing, it is clear that the quantity of S is required in double to the quantity of O but for given O (32g), there is no appropriate S (128-32=96g) hence S is the limiting agent

( the second question is improper )
