Answer: -
1 mol
Explanation: -
Number of moles of Sulphur S = 7
Number of moles of O2 = 9
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is
2S (s)+3 O2 (g)→2SO3(g)
From the above reaction we can see that
3 mol of O2 react with 2 mol of S
9 mol of O2 will react with
= 6 mol of S
Unreacted S = 7 - = 1 mol.
If a reaction vessel initially contains 7 mol S and 9 mol O2
1 mole of s will be in the reaction vessel once the reactants have reacted as much as possible
