1 answer:
Explanation:
Copper(II) sulfide reacts with oxygen gas to give solid copper(II) oxide and sulfur trioxide gas.
The reaction is given as:
When 1 mol copper(II) sulfide react with 2 moles of oxygen gas it gives 1 mol of solid copper(II) oxide and 1 mol of sulfur trioxide gas
The gas formed in above reaction that is sulfur trioxide reacts with water to give sulfuric acid or hydrogen sulfate.
The reaction is given as:
1 mol of sulfur trioxide gas reacts with 1 mol of liquid water to produce 1 molo of liquid hydrogen sulfate or sulfuric acid

Answer:
Elemental gold to have a Face-centered cubic structure.
Explanation:
From the information given:
Radius of gold = 144 pm
Its density = 19.32 g/cm³
Assuming the structure is a face-centered cubic structure, we can determine the density of the crystal by using the following:
a = 407 pm
In a unit cell, Volume (V) = a³
V = (407 pm)³
V = 6.74 × 10⁷ pm³
V = 6.74 × 10⁻²³ cm³
Recall that:
Net no. of an atom in an FCC unit cell = 4
Thus;
density d = 19.41 g/cm³
Similarly; For a body-centered cubic structure
where;
r = 144
a = 332.56 pm
In a unit cell, Volume V = a³
V = (332.56 pm)³
V = 3.68 × 10⁷ pm³
V 3.68 × 10⁻²³ cm³
Recall that:
Net no. of atoms in BCC cell = 2
∴
density =17.78 g/cm³
From the two calculate densities, we will realize that the density in the face-centered cubic structure is closer to the given density.
This makes the elemental gold to have a Face-centered cubic structure.
