Answer:

9.89 x 10²³ molecules H₂S

Explanation:

To find the molecules of H₂S, you need to (1) convert grams S to moles S (via the atomic mass of sulfur), then (2) convert moles S to moles H₂S (via the mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), and then (3) convert moles H₂S to molecules H₂S (via Avogadro's Number). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value.

Atomic Mass (S): 32.065 g/mol

2 H₂S(s) + SO₂(g) -----> 3 S(s) + 2 H₂O(l)

Avogadro's Number:

6.022 x 10²³ molecules = 1 mole

79.0 g S           1 mole            2 moles H₂S          6.022 x 10²³ molecules
---------------  x  ---------------  x  ----------------------  x  -------------------------------------  =
                        32.065 g            3 moles S                          1 mole

=  9.89 x 10²³ molecules H₂S

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Yes, chloromethane has stronger intermolecular forces than a pure sample of methane has.

Explanation:

In both methane and chloromethane, there are weak dispersion forces. However, in methane, the dispersion forces are the only intermolecular forces present. Also, the lower molar mass of methane means that it has a lower degree of dispersion forces.

For chloromethane, there is in addition to dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interaction arising from the polar C-Cl bond in the molecule. Also the molar mass of chloromethane  is greater than that of methane implying a greater magnitude of dispersion forces in operation.

Therefore, chloromethane has stronger intermolecular forces than a pure sample of methane has.
