Answer: Sulfite ion has a shorter

S-O

bonds.

Explanation:

The Lewis structure of

SO

3

is

SO3

SO3

(from chemistry.stackexchange.com)

It has a total of six σ and π bonds to the three

O

atoms.

The average bond order of an

S-O

bond is

6

3

=

2

.

The Lewis structure of

SO

2

−

3

is

It is a resonance hybrid, with a total of four σ and π bonds to the three

O

atoms.

The average bond order of an

S-O

bond is

4

3

≈

1.33

.

Since bond length decreases as bond order increases,

SO

3

is predicted to have the shorter bond length.

Sulfite

How many grams of H2O will be formed when 32.0 g H2 is mixed with 84.0 g of O2 and allowed to react to form water
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

94.58 g of H_2O

Explanation:

For this question we have to start with the reaction:

H_2~+~O_2~->~H_2O

Now, we can balance the reaction:

2H_2~+~O_2~->~2H_2O

We have the amount of H_2  and the amount of O_2 . Therefore we have to find the limiting reactive, for this, we have to follow a few steps.

1) Find the moles of each reactive, using the molar mass of each compound (H_2~=~2~g/mol~~O_2=~32~g/mol ).

2) Divide by the coefficient of each compound in the balanced reaction ("2" for H_2 and "1" for O_2).

<u>Find the moles of each reactive</u>

32.0~g~H_2\frac{1~mol~H_2}{2~g~of~H_2}=15.87~mol~H_2

84.0~g~of~O_2\frac{1~mol~of~O_2}{32~g~of~O_2}=2.62~mol~of~O_2

<u>Divide by the coefficient</u>

<u />

\frac{15.87~mol~H_2}{2}=7.94

\frac{2.62~mol~of~O_2}{1}=2.62

The smallest values are for H_2, so hydrogen is the limiting reagent. Now, we can do the calculation for the amount of water:

32.0~g~H_2\frac{1~mol~H_2}{2~g~of~H_2}\frac{2~mol~H_2O}{2~mol~H_2}\frac{18~g~H_2O}{1~mol~H_2O}=94.58~g~H_2O

We have to remember that the molar ratio between H_2O and H_2 is 2:2 and the molar mass of H_2O is 18 g/mol.
