128g of sulphur are burned in excess oxygen. What mass of sulphur dioxide forms? S + O2 --> SO2 *

Mass of Sulphur dioxide : 256 g

Given

Reaction

S + O2 --> SO2 *

Required

Mass of Sulphur dioxide

Solution

mol of Sulphur (Ar=32 g/mol) :

mol = mass : Ar

mol = 128 : 32

mol = 4

From the equation, mol ratio S : SO2 = 1 : 1, so mol SO2 = 4

Mass of SO2 :

mass = mol x MW SO2

mass = 4 x 64

mass = 256 g

The reason Banksy's advice was "not to buy anything from anybody, unless it was created for sale in the first place." Was because Bansky's own art was shredded because it was going to be sold. Bansky did not want to sell his art in the first place. Which is why he says to only buy something from someone if they truly want it to be sold. Also, that it should only be okay if someone were to buy something from someone else only if the creator made it and approved of it being put up for bid or being sold.
