Answer:
acids or bases can be tested
by chemical indicators
D. More collisions occur and the time required for the reaction decreases
This happens because according to collision theory, when energy (in this case, thermal energy) is applied to particles, they move/vibrate more quickly.
1) Balanced chemical equation:
2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) -> 2SO3 (l)
2) Molar ratios
2 mol SO2 : 1 mol O2 : 2 mol SO3
3) Convert 6.00 g O2 to moles
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
number of moles = 6.00 g / 32 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O2.
4) Use proportions with the molar ratios
=> 2 moles SO2 / 1 mol O2 = x / 0.1875 mol O2
=> x = 0.1875 mol O2 * 2 mol SO2 / 1 mol O2 = 0.375 mol SO2.
5) Convert 0.375 mol SO2 to grams
mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass
molar mass SO2 = 32 g/mol + 2*16 g/mol = 64 g/mol
=> mass SO2 = 0.375 mol * 64 g / mol = 24.0 g
Answer: 24.0 g of SO2 are needed to react completely with 6.00 g O2.
