When the reaction equation is:

CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)

we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.

to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

when P is the pressure =  1.1 atm

and V is the volume = 14.5 L 

n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)

R ideal gas constant = 0.0821

and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K

so, by substitution:

1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5

∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)

       = 0.68 moles SO2

∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles

so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:

when mass = moles * molar mass

and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol


∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g

Someone please do this!!!
Lilit [14]

Answer:

1) Fe = 69.9%

O = 31.1%

2) H = 5.19%

O = 16.5%

N = 28.9%

C = 49.5%

Explanation:

One easy way to do percent compositions is to assume you have 100g of a substance.

1) Lets say we have 100g of Fe2O3.

The total molar mass would be:

= 55.845*2+15.999*3 = 159.687

The molar mass of the Fe2 alone is:

=55.845*2 = 111.69

Thus, the grams of Fe2(out of a 100) could be calculated by multiplying 100g * the molar mass ratio of Fe2 to the whole:

= 100g *\frac{111.69}{159.687} = 69.9431

Which is approximately 69.9%.

We can find the amount of O3 by simply subtracting, as the rest of the compound is made of O3. Thus, the % composition of O3 is 31.1%

You can then do this same process to the next question, getting us the following:

H = 5.19%

O = 16.5%

N = 28.9%

C = 49.5%
