The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
2H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + 3S
Stoichiometry of H₂S to SO₂ is 2:1
Limiting reactant is fully used up in the reaction and amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
Number of H₂S moles - 8.0 g / 34 g/mol = 0.24 mol of H₂S
Number of SO₂ moles = 12.0 g / 64 g/mol = 0.188 mol of SO₂
According to molar ratio of 2:1
If we assume H₂S to be the limiting reactant
2 mol of H₂S reacts with 1 mol of SO₂
Therefore 0.24 mol of H₂S requires - 1/2 x 0.24 = 0.12 mol of SO₂
But 0.188 mol of SO₂ is present therefore SO₂ is in excess and H₂S is the limiting reactant.
H₂S is the limiting reactant
Amount of S produced depends on amount of H₂S present
Stoichiometry of H₂S to S is 2:3
2 mol of H₂S forms 3 mol of S
Therefore 0.24 mol of H₂S forms - 3/2 x 0.24 mol = 0.36 mol of S
Mass of S produced = 0.36 mol x 32 g/mol = 11.5 g of S is produced
Charge # = protons - electons
Mass # = protons + neutrons
so that would be
3-3= charge#
3+4= mass#
