Answer:
Mass = 40.4 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass in gram = ?
Volume of SO₂ = 14.2 L
Temperature = standard = 273 K
Pressure = standard = 1 atm
Solution:
The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,
PV = nRT
P= Pressure
V = volume
n = number of moles
R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K
T = temperature in kelvin
1 atm × 14.2 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K × 273 K
14.2 atm.L = n × 22.41 atm.L/ mol
n = 14.2 atm.L/22.41 atm.L/ mol
n = 0.63 mol
Mass of sulfur dioxide:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.63 mol × 64.1 g/mol
Mass = 40.4 g
Answer is: Yes it is balanced. It has the same number of Ca and O on both the reactant side and the product side.
According to principle of mass conservation, number of atoms must be equal on both side of chemical reaction.
There is one calcium atom atom and one oxygen atom on both side of reaction, so chemical reaction is balanced.
1) One piece of science equipment that you might not have been introduced to is the graduated cylinder. measure volume of a liquid.
2) Although you need to be careful when using a Bunsen burner, I think it is one of the most interesting lab tools to use. A Bunsen burner is a heat source used to raise the temperature.
