Sulfur trioxide reacts violently with water to produce sulfuric acid. Calculate the number of grams of sulfur trioxide necessary to produce 3.210 kg of sulfuric acid.
Added by Kenneth A.
Step 1
SO3 + H2O → H2SO4 Now, we need to find the molar mass of each compound involved in the reaction. Molar mass of SO3 = 1 * (32.07 g/mol for S) + 3 * (16.00 g/mol for O) = 32.07 + 48.00 = 80.07 g/mol Molar mass of H2SO4 = 2 * (1.01 g/mol for H) + 1 * (32.07 g/mol Show more…
