The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the reaction and determine how much of each reactant is consumed and how much product is formed when 1 mole of SO₂ and 1 mole of O₂ react to completion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the Balanced Chemical Equation:** The balanced equation for the reaction is: \[ 2 \text{SO}_2 + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{SO}_3 \] 2. **Identify the Initial Moles of Reactants:** We start with: - 1 mole of SO₂ - 1 mole of O₂ 3. **Determine the Stoichiometric Ratios:** According to the balanced equation: - 2 moles of SO₂ react with 1 mole of O₂. This means that for every 2 moles of SO₂, 1 mole of O₂ is required. 4. **Calculate the Limiting Reagent:** To find the limiting reagent, we compare the available moles of each reactant to their stoichiometric coefficients: - For SO₂: The stoichiometric ratio is 2 (from the equation), so: \[ \text{Available moles of SO}_2 = 1 \quad \text{(stoichiometric ratio = 2)} \] \[ \text{Moles required for 1 mole of O}_2 = 2 \times 1 = 2 \] - For O₂: The stoichiometric ratio is 1, so: \[ \text{Available moles of O}_2 = 1 \quad \text{(stoichiometric ratio = 1)} \] \[ \text{Moles required for 1 mole of SO}_2 = 1 \times 1 = 1 \] Since we only have 1 mole of SO₂ (which requires 0.5 moles of O₂ to react completely), SO₂ is the limiting reagent. 5. **Calculate the Amount of Each Reactant Consumed:** - Since SO₂ is the limiting reagent, it will be completely consumed: \[ \text{Moles of SO}_2 consumed = 1 \text{ mole} \] - The amount of O₂ consumed can be calculated based on the stoichiometry: \[ \text{Moles of O}_2 consumed = \frac{1 \text{ mole of SO}_2}{2} = 0.5 \text{ moles} \] 6. **Determine Remaining Reactants:** - Remaining O₂: \[ \text{Initial moles of O}_2 - \text{Moles of O}_2 consumed = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 \text{ moles} \] 7. **Calculate the Amount of Product Formed:** - According to the stoichiometry of the balanced equation, for every 2 moles of SO₂ consumed, 2 moles of SO₃ are produced. Therefore: \[ \text{Moles of SO}_3 produced = 1 \text{ mole of SO}_2 \times \frac{2 \text{ moles of SO}_3}{2 \text{ moles of SO}_2} = 1 \text{ mole of SO}_3 \] ### Final Results: - Moles of SO₃ produced: 1 mole - Moles of O₂ remaining: 0.5 moles - Moles of SO₂ remaining: 0 moles ### Conclusion: The correct option based on the analysis is that 1 mole of SO₃ will be produced, and half a mole of O₂ will remain unreacted.
