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

A sample of Neon is in a sealed container held under isothermic conditions. The initial pressure and volume are 2.7 atm and 4.5
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The final volume in mL is 7.14 mL or 7.1 mL.

Explanation:

1.Use Boyle's Law(P_{1} V_{1}= P_{2} V_{2}). Re-arrange to solve for V_{2}<em> for the final volume.</em>

<em />

<em>2. Plug in values. </em>V_{2} =\frac{(2.7 atm)(4.5 mL)}{(1.7 atm)}  = 7.14 mL

the air pressure from the atmosphere measures 0.5atm at an altitude of 18,000 ft. How much pressure is this in pounds per square
Julli [10]

14.7lb/in²

Explanation:

This is a conversion problem from atm to pounds per square inch

Pressure is the combined force per unit area of substance on another.

Given pressure = 0.5atm

To solve this problem ;

Convert from atm to N/m² to pound per square inch

    1 atm = 101325N/m²

  0.5atm = 0.5 x 101325 = 50,662.5‬N/m²

now we need to convert to pound per square inch;

     1N  = 0.225lb

     1m = 39.37in

Solving;

 101325 Nx \frac{1}{m^{2} }  x \frac{0.225lb}{1N }  x \frac{m^{2} }{39.37in x 39.37in} = 14.7lb/in²
