Determine the mass of sulphur (IV) oxide obtained when 91.0g of oxygen reacts completely with sulphur according to the following equation: S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g) [S = 32; O = 16]

A.

123g

B.

139g

C.

155g

D.

182g

Correct answer is D

S + O2 → SO2.

According to the equation 32g of O2 produced 64g of SO2

therefore 91g of O2 will produce yg of SO2
y = 916432

y = 182g of SO2

Calculate the mass of chlorine gas which occupies a volume of 1.12 dm3 a volume of 1.12 dm3 at s.t.p [Cl = 35.5, 1 mole og gas occupies 22.4 dm3 at s. t. p ]

A.

1.80g

B.

3.55g

C.

7.10g

D.

15.50g

Correct answer is B

1 mole Cl2 occupy 22.4dm3
i.e 2 x 35.5 → 22.4 ; x → 1. 12
:. x = 1.1222.4 x 2 x 35.5 = 3.55

What volume of hydrogen will be produced if 100cm3 of ammonia is completely decomposed at constant temperature and pressure? The equation for reaction is 2NH3(g) → N2(g) + 3H2(g)

A.

50cm3

B.

150cm3

C.

200cm3

D.

300cm3

Correct answer is B

According to the equation 2NH3 → N3 + 3H2
2 x 22400cm3 of ammonia will produce
3 x 22400cm3 of hydrogen
If 100cm3 of NH3 is used.
:. H2 volume = \(\frac{100}{2x22400} x 3x22400
=150cm3
