Use the following balanced equation to perform the requested operations.

2Li + CuSO3 → Cu + Li2SO3
When 3.33 moles of lithium are consumed, how many moles of Li2SO3 are produced?
How many moles of copper are produced when 12.33 grams of CuSO3 are reacted?

Step-by-step explanation:

U can use molar ratio of

Li : Li2SO3

2 : 1

so 3.33÷2=1.665 so 1.67 moles

then u can use the

moles = mass ÷ mr

= 12.33÷ 100.08

= 0.123 moles of CuSO3 then use the molar ratio

CuSO3 : Cu

1:1

so 0.123 moles of cu

hope this make sense:)
