Calculate the mass of the salt formed as a result of the interaction of barium hydroxide with a mass
Calculate the mass of the salt formed as a result of the interaction of barium hydroxide with a mass of 51.3 and sulfur (4) oxide with a volume of 4.48 liters.
1. Let’s write down the equality of chemical interaction:
Ba (OH) 2 + SO2 = BaSO3 + H2O.
2. Calculate the number of moles of barium hydroxide and sulfur dioxide (Vm – molar volume, constant equal to 22.4 l / mol):
n (Ba (OH) 2) = m (Ba (OH) 2) / M (Ba (OH) 2) = 51.3 g / 171 g / mol = 0.3 mol.
n (SO2) = V (SO2) / Vm = 4.48 L / 22.4 L / mol = 0.2 mol.
3. Using the equality of the chemical interaction, we calculate the number of moles and the mass of barium sulfite:
! SO2 is in short supply.
n (BaSO3) = n (SO2) = 0.2 mol.
m (BaSO3) = n (BaSO3) * M (BaSO3) = 0.2 mol * 217 g / mol = 43.4 g.
Result: m (BaSO3) = 43.4 g.
