3 0

Answer:

Fluorine element has less orbitals than chlorine.

Explanation:

They are both in the same group so they have to gain the same amount of electrons(which will not effect shape)....However on going down the group one notices that the atoms get larger as more orbitals are needed to hold the electrons.

C(s) + S8(s) → CS2(l)
Vanyuwa [196]
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>4C(s) + S8(s) → 4CS2(l)

We are given the amount of carbon and sulfur to be used in the reaction. We need to determine first the limiting reactant to be able to solve this correctly.

</span>7.70 g C ( 1 mol / 12.01 g) =0.64 mol C
19.7 g S8 ( 1 mol / 256.48 g) = 0.08 mol S8

The limiting reactant would be S8. We use this amount to calculate.

0.08 mol S8 ( 4 mol CS2 / 1 mol S8 ) ( 256.48 g / 1 mol ) = 78.8 g CS2
