What is a solvent? what is a solute ? which one is usually found in the greater amount?

1 answer:

5 0

A solvent is something that can have something else dissolved within it and turn into a homogenous solution, while the solute is that something else that can be dissolved into the solvent. Usually, the solvent is found in greater amount because most (except for rare cases) solvents have a saturation point that is below the equal-mass point.

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
