Answer:

0.558mole of SO₃

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Molar mass of SO₃ = 80.0632g/mol

Mass of S = 17.9g

Molar mass of S = 32.065g/mol

Number of moles of O₂ = 0.157mole

Molar mass of O₂ = 31.9988g/mol

Unknown:

Maximum amount of SO₃

Solution

  We need to write the proper reaction equation.

           2S + 3O₂ → 2SO₃

We should bear in mind that the extent of this reaction relies on the reactant that is in short supply i.e limiting reagent. Here the limiting reagent is the Sulfur, S. The oxygen gas would be in excess since it is readily availbale.

So we simply compare the molar relationship between sulfur and product formed to solve the problem:

First, find the number of moles of Sulfur, S:

   Number of moles of S = \frac{mass }{molar mass}

   Number of moles of S =  \frac{17.9 }{32.065} = 0.558mole

Now to find the maximum amount of SO₃ formed, compare the moles of reactant to the product:

       2 mole of Sulfur produced 2 mole of SO₃

   Therefore; 0.558mole of sulfur will produce 0.558mole of SO₃

NARA [144]

Explanation:

2,3-diethyl hexane

At first we select a long chain.

Then, we number that chain from that side where substituent position is closer.

Then, we write it's IUPAC name

Position of substituent + substituent name + chain name + suffix

Here,

2,3 + -diethyl + hex + -ane

= 2,3-diethyl hexane

Element A has an electronegativity of 0.8 and element B has an electronegativity of 3.0. Which statement best describes the bond
Advocard [28]

Answer:

C) The compound is largely ionic with A as the cation.

Explanation:

Pulings proposed the method to determine if the compound is ionic in nature or covalent in nature , by finding the difference between the electronegativity of the respective cation and anion .

The ion with higher electronegativity is the anion and the ion with lower electronegativity is the cation.

The electronegativity difference above 1.7 make the compound ionic in nature.

Hence, from the question ,

A is the cation and B is the anion.

And the electronegativity difference above 1.7 so the compound is ionic in nature.

To what volume would you have to change 6.5 Liters of a gas at 1.25 atm in order to
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

<h2>8.13 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The required volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{6.5 \times 1.25}{1}  = 6.5 \times 1.25 \\  = 8.125

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.13 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
