Answer:

The answer to your question is a) limiting reactant SO₂

                                                     b)mass of SO₃ produced 31.25 g

Explanation:

Data

mass of SO₂ = 25 g

mass of O₂ = 40 g

Balanced Reaction

                                     2SO₂   +   O₂   ⇒   2SO₃

Process

1.- Calculate the molecular mass of the reactants

SO₂ = 32 + (16 x 2) = 32 + 32 = 64

O₂ = 16 x 2 =32

2.- Use proportions to determine the limiting reactant

Theoretical proportion    2(SO₂) / O₂ = 2(64) / 32 = 4

Experimental proportion   SO₂ / O₂ = 25 / 40 = 0.625

From these results, we determined that the limiting reactant is SO₂, because the proportion in the experiment is lower.

3.- Amount of SO₃ produced

Mass of SO₃ = 32 + (3 x 16) = 80 g

                        128 g of SO₂   ---------------  2(80) g of SO₃

                        25 g of SO₂    ---------------   x

                         x = (25 x 2 x 80) / 128

                         x = 31.25 g of SO₃

The concentrations of the products at equilibrium are [pcl3] = 0.180 m and [cl2] = 0.250 m. what is the concentration of the rea
sineoko [7]
We have Kc = 4.2 x 10^-2 (given but missing in the question)
and When the balanced equation for this reaction is:
PCl5(g) ↔ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
so, according to the Kc formula:
Kc = the concentration of products / the concentration of the reactants
so, to get the concentration of the reactants in equilibrium, the concentration of the products / the concentration of the reactants should equal the Kc value which is given in the question (missing in your question).
So by substitution in Kc formula: 
Kc   = [PCl3]*[Cl2] / [PCl5]
4.2 x 10^-2 =  0.18 * 0.25 /[PCl5]
∴[PCl5] = 0.18*0.25 / 4.2x10^-2 = 1.07
So the concentration of the reactants in equilibrim = 1.07
