Answer:

Since the container is consealed, and O2 will no be completely consumed, the total mass of material in the container will be 80 grams SO3+ 52 grams O2 = 132 grams (option B)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sulfur = 32.00 grams

Mass of oxygen = 48.00 grams

Molar mass of sulfur = 32.07 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen = 32 g/mol

Molar mass of SO3 = 80.07 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2S + 3O2 → 2SO3

Step 3: Calculate moles S

Moles S = Mass S / molar mass S

Moles S = 32.0 grams / 32.07 g/mol

Moles S = 0.998 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles O2

Moles O2 = 100.0 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles O2 = 3.125 moles

Step 5: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 2 moles S we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles SO3

S is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.998 moles)

O2 is in excess, there will be consumed 3/2 * 0.998 = 1.497 moles

There will remain 3.125- 1.497 = 1.628 moles O2

This is 1.628 moles * 32 g/mol = 52.1 grams

Step 6: Calculate moles SO3

For 2 moles S we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles SO3

For 0.998 moles S there will react 0.998 moles SO3

Step 6: Calculate mass SO3

Mass SO3 = moles SO3 * molar mass SO3

Mass SO3 = 0.998 moles * 80.07 g/mol

Mass SO3 = 79.9 grams ≈ 80 grams

There will be produced 80 grams of SO3

Since the container is consealed, and O2 will no be completely consumed, the total mass of material in the container will be 80 grams SO3+ 52 grams O2 = 132 grams (option B)

Two masses exerting a force on each other is an example of________
777dan777 [17]

The correct answer is option C, that is, the universal law of gravitation.  

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, every particle fascinates every other particle in the universe with a force that is directly equivalent to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This is a usual physical law obtained from empirical observations by what Isaac Newton knew as inductive reasoning.

how many grams of calcium oxide are producer from the decomposition of 125 grams of calcium carbonate
Dmitrij [34]

70.0 g. The decomposition of 125 g CaCO3 produces 700 g CaO.

MM = 100.09 56.08

CaCO3 → CaO + CO2

Mass 125 g

a) Moles of CaCO3 = 125 g CaCO3 x (1 mol CaCO3/100.09 g CaCO3)

= 1.249 mol CaCO3

b) Moles of CaO = 1.249 mol CaCO3 x (1 mol CaO/1 mol CaCO3)

= 1.249 mol CaO

c) Mass of CaO = 1.249 mol CaO x (56.08 g CaO/1 mol CaO) = 70.0 g

A 2.00-liter sample of a gas has a mass of 1.80 grams. what is the density ,in grams liter
maria [59]
<span>Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume.

Density = 1.80 g / 2 L = 0.9 g/L</span>
