Question

For the following equation; ____S8­ + ___ O2 à ___ SO2 a. State what type of reaction is taking place? b. Balance the equation c. If we started with 4.0 grams of Sulfur, how many moles of Sulfur Dioxide would be produced? (You must show your work)

Answer 1

a) Combustion

b) S8 + 8O2 -> 8SO2

c) 0.125 mol SO2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Combustion

b) S8 + 8O2 -> 8SO2

c)

`4.0 g S8 ((1 mol S8)/(256 g S8))((8 mol SO2)/(1 mol S8) ) =0.125 mol SO2`
