Answer: 2.8 moles of copper (Il) sulfide
(CuS) will be produced from 2.8 moles of sulphur.

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is:


Cu+S\rightarrow CuS

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of
S produce = 1 mole of copper (Il) sulfide
(CuS)

Thus 2.8 moles of
S will produce=
(1)/(1)* 2.8=2.8moles of copper (Il) sulfide
(CuS)

Thus 2.8 moles of copper (Il) sulfide
(CuS) will be produced from 2.8 moles of sulphur.
