The complete balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis in plants is:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O ----> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
Based on the balanced equation the molar ratio between H₂O and C₆H₁₂O₆ is 6:1
This means that 6 moles of H₂O is need for every 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆
9.31 mol of C₆H₁₂O₆ x (6 moles of H₂O / 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆) = 55.86 moles of H₂O
Thus the moles of H₂O need is 55.86

The reaction between mercury (Hg) and sulfur (S) to form HgS is:
Hg + S ------------- HgS
Therefore: 1 mole of Hg reacts with 1 mole of S to form 1 mole of HgS
The given mass of Hg = 246 g
Atomic mass of Hg = 200.59 g/mol
# moles of Hg = 246 g/ 200.59 gmol-1 = 1.226 moles
Based on the reaction stoichiometry,
# moles of S that would react = 1.226 moles
Atomic mass of S = 32 g/mol
Therefore, mass of S = 1.226 moles*32 g/mole = 39.23 g
39.2 g of sulfur would be needed to react completely with 246 g of Hg to produce HgS
