Question

Zinc metal reacts with yellow crystals of sulfur in a fiery reaction to produce a white powder of zine sulfide. A chemist determines that 65.4 g zinc reacts with 32.1 g of sulfur. How many grams of zinc sulfide are produced?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Zn + S ---> ZnS

Mass of Zinc + Mass of Sulphur = Mass of Zinc sulfide ( Law of conservation)

Mass of zinc= 65.4g

Mass of Sulfur = 32.1g

Mass of Zinc Sulfide= (65.4 + 32.1)g

Mass of Zinc Sulfide = 97.5g
