If a reaction vessel initially contains 5 mol S and 10 mil O2, how many moles of S will be in the reaction vessel once the reactants have reacted as much as possible

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

2S       +       3O₂       =       2SO₃

2moles      3 moles

2 moles of S react with 3 moles of O₂

5 moles of S will react with 3 x 5 / 2 moles of O₂

= 7.5 moles of O₂ .

O₂ remaining unreacted = 10 - 7.5 = 2.5 moles .

All the moles of S will exhausted in the reaction and 2.5 moles of oxygen will be left .
