The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
2H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + 3S
Stoichiometry of H₂S to SO₂ is 2:1
Limiting reactant is fully used up in the reaction and amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
Number of H₂S moles - 8.0 g / 34 g/mol = 0.24 mol of H₂S
Number of SO₂ moles = 12.0 g / 64 g/mol = 0.188 mol of SO₂
According to molar ratio of 2:1
If we assume H₂S to be the limiting reactant
2 mol of H₂S reacts with 1 mol of SO₂ 
Therefore 0.24 mol of H₂S requires - 1/2 x 0.24 = 0.12 mol of SO₂ 
But 0.188 mol of SO₂ is present therefore SO₂ is in excess and H₂S is the limiting reactant.
H₂S is the limiting reactant
Amount of S produced depends on amount of H₂S present
Stoichiometry of H₂S to S is 2:3
2 mol of H₂S forms 3 mol of S
Therefore 0.24 mol of H₂S forms - 3/2 x 0.24 mol = 0.36 mol of S
Mass of S produced = 0.36 mol x 32 g/mol = 11.5 g of S is produced

What is the ideal gas law
dlinn [17]

Answer: Gases are complicated. They're full of billions and billions of energetic gas molecules that can collide and possibly interact with each other. Since it's hard to exactly describe a real gas, people created the concept of an Ideal gas as an approximation that helps us model and predict the behavior of real gases. The term ideal gas refers to a hypothetical gas composed of molecules which follow a few rules:

Ideal gas molecules do not attract or repel each other. The only interaction between ideal gas molecules would be an elastic collision upon impact with each other or an elastic collision with the walls of the container. [What is an elastic collision?]

Ideal gas molecules themselves take up no volume. The gas takes up volume since the molecules expand into a large region of space, but the Ideal gas molecules are approximated as point particles that have no volume in and of themselves.

If this sounds too ideal to be true, you're right. There are no gases that are exactly ideal, but there are plenty of gases that are close enough that the concept of an ideal gas is an extremely useful approximation for many situations. In fact, for temperatures near room temperature and pressures near atmospheric pressure, many of the gases we care about are very nearly ideal.

If the pressure of the gas is too large (e.g. hundreds of times larger than atmospheric pressure), or the temperature is too low (e.g.
