Answer:

8 should be placed in front of SO₂.

Explanation:

The easiest way to solve this question is by writing the entire balanced equation:

4FeS₂ + 11O₂ -> 2Fe₂O₃ + 8SO₂

We can achieve this by first balancing the Fe, then S, and finally the O.

We can also double check our answer by counting the number of each element on both sides:

-Reactants: 4 Fe, 8 S, 22 O

-Products: 4 Fe 8 S, 22 O

Since they match, our equation is balanced, and the coefficient in front of SO₂ is 8.

<h3>solution:</h3>

The initial entropy is obtained from the initial pressure and temperature with data from A-6 using interpolation:

s= 8.2652 kJ/kgK

The final temperature is determined from the entropy and the final pressure with data from A-6 using interpolation:

T₂ = T₁+ T₂ - T₁/ 8₂ - 8₁ ( s - s₁)

= (400 + 500 - 400/8.3271 - 8.0347 (8.2652 - 8))

= 478.83°C

The final enthalpy is determined in the same way:

h₂= h₁ + h₂ - h₁/s₂ - s₁ ( s - s₁)

= ( 3275.5+ 3486.6 - 3275.5/ 8.3271 - 8.0347) (8.265)

= 3441.91 kJ/kg

State the guideline you can use to predict the formula of:

Cerrena [4.2K]

We can predict formula of ionic compounds by:

Take a look at where the elements are listed on the periodic table.
The amount of electrons that an element would need to gain or lose in order to resemble an atom of a nearby noble gas is one of the similarities that atoms in the same column as one another (group) tend to display.
Alkali metal group I ions have +1 charges.
Alkaline earth metals (group 2 ions) have a +2 charge.
Nonmetal group 6 ions have a charge of -2.
Halides in group 7 have a -1 charge.
The charges of the transition metals cannot be predicted in a straightforward manner.
Check out a table of charges (valences) to see potential values. The +1, +2, and +3 charges are most frequently employed in beginning and general chemistry courses.
Keep in mind that the positive ion is always stated first when writing an ionic compound's formula.

These are the few guidelines we can use to product formula.
