Question

For each of the following unbalanced equations, calculate how many grams of each product would be produced by complete reaction of 10.8 g of the second reactant. (a) S(s) + H2SO4(aq) → SO2(g) + H2O(l) SO2 WebAssign will check your answer for the correct number of significant figures. g H2O WebAssign will check your answer for the correct number of significant figures. g

Answer 1

`10.6g` of
`SO_(2)`

`2.0g` of
`H_(2)O`

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are going to balance the reaction:

`S+_(2)H_(2)SO{4}=_(3)SO_(2)+_(2)H_(2)O`

Then we are going to find the quantities with the stoichiometry:

-For
`SO_(2)`:

`10.8gH_(2)SO_(4)*(1molH_(2)SO_(4))/(98.079gH_(2)SO_(4))*(3molesSO_(2))/(2molesH_(2)SO_(4))*(64.066gSO_(2))/(1molSO_(2))=10.6gSO_(2)`

-For
`H_(2)O`:

`10.8gH_(2)SO_(4)*(1molH_(2)SO_(4))/(98.079gH_(2)SO_(4))*(2molesH_(2)O)/(2molesH_(2)H_(2)O)*(18.015gH_(2)O)/(1molH_(2)O)=10.6gH_(2)O=2.0gH_(2)O`
