#1 Remember the moles equation , which is

moles = mass(g) /Mr

#2 Mr is the relative molecular mass of the given substance.

For SO2 it is'

1 x s = 1 x 32 = 32

2 O = 2 x 16 = 32

32 + 32 = 64

Hence substituting

moles(SO2) = 2.56g / 64 = moles = 0.04 moles

NB When writing chemical formula, single letter symbols are ALWAYS a CAPITAL letter. Hence sulphur is 'S' and oxygen is 'O'. NOT 'o'

A double letter symbol is written as , 1st leter is a capital letter and the second letter is small / lower case. e.g. Sodium is 'Na'.

64 g of SO2 = 1 mole

2.56 g = (1 * 2.56) / 64 = 0.04 mole

How many moles of SO2 is present in 0.45 grams of sulfur dioxide?

1 mole SO2 = 64.064g SO2 0.45g SO2 x 1mol SO2/64.064g SO2 = 0.0070 mole SO2


How many moles are present in 128 grams of sulphur dioxide?

Divide mass of 128 g SO2 by its molar mass of 64.066 g.mol−1 SO2 and you get the number of moles: 1.9979 = 2.00 mole SO2


How many moles of SO2 are present in 250.0 g?

Number of moles is determined by dividing molar mass into the number of grams. SO2 has a molar mass of 64.066 g. To find the number of moles in 250.0 g of SO2, divide 250.0 g by 64.066 g. This gives you just over 3.9 moles.


What is the limiting reagent when 3.1 moles of so2 react with 2.7 moles of o2?

2SO2 +O2 -----> 2SO3 so 3.1 moles of SO2 would require 1.55 moles of O2 so since there are 2.7 moles of O2 present and thus in excess, the SO2 is the limiting reagent.

How many moles of sulfur trioxide are formed from 3 moles of sulfur dioxide?

The most straightforward reaction for the formation of SO3 from SO2 is 2 SO2 + O2 => 2 SO3. If this is the actual reaction for the formation, 3 moles of SO3 are formed from 3 moles of SO2.
