The reason why Tin granules is mostly used or preferred than just a piece of Tin because a piece of Tin is plainly metal, in which this will be difficult in having it to be oxidized when it is exposed or in the air rather than Tin granules.

Answer:

To increase the surface area of reaction.

Explanation:

The tiny granules are used as they increase the surface-area to volume ratio. Smaller granules have a higher surface area to volume ratio. In a chemical reaction, it means that the reaction increases as there is more particle to particle reaction.

Hence the granules are preferred to solids.

For the reaction 2 s (s) + 3 o2 (g) → 2 so3 (g), how much so3 can be produced from 4 g o2 and excess s? 1. 0.25 mol so3 2. 0.13
igor_vitrenko [27]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2S + 3O₂ --> 2SO₃
Stoichiometry of O₂ to SO₃ is 3:2
O₂ is the limiting reactant and S is provided in excess. since O₂ is the limiting reactant, the whole amount is consumed in the reaction and amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
Number of O₂ moles reacted- 4 g / 32 g/mol = 0.125 mol
3 mol of O₂ forms 2 mol of SO₃
therefore when 0.125 mol of O₂ reacts number of SO₃ moles - 2/3 x 0.125 mol
Number of SO₃ moles formed - 0.0833 mol
Answer is 4) 0.08 mol
