Question 57

A manufacturer tests sulfur dioxide sensors using sealed calibration vessels.

The relative formula mass (MrM_rMr​) of sulfur dioxide, SO2\text{SO}_2SO2​, is 64.

Use the equation:

n=mMrn = \dfrac{m}{M_r}n=Mr​m​

where n n\,n is the amount in mol and m m\,m is the mass in g.

a.

A calibration vessel is filled with 3.2 g of sulfur dioxide.

Calculate the amount of sulfur dioxide added.

Give your answer in mol.

[2]
b.

A second calibration vessel must contain 0.20 mol of sulfur dioxide.

Calculate the mass of sulfur dioxide needed.

Give your answer in grams.
