Suppose 12.0 g of carbon (c) reacts with 70.0 g of sulfur (s) to give 76.0 g of the compound carbon disulfide 1 c s 2 2 . in the process, all the carb

Answer is: mass of unused sulfur is 5.87 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: C + 2S → CS₂.

m(C) = 12.0 g; mass of carbon.

m(S) = 70.0 g; mass of sulfur.

n(C) = m(C) ÷ M(C).

n(C) = 12 g ÷ 12 g/mol.

n(C) = 1 mol; amount of substance.

n(S) = m(S) ÷ M(S).

n(S) = 70 g ÷ 32.065 g/mol.

n(S) = 2.183 mol.

From chemical reaction: n(C) : n₁(S) = 1 : 2.

n₁(S) = 1 mol · 2 = 2 mol.

Δn(S) = n(S) - n₁(S).

Δn(S) = 2.183 mol - 2 mol.

Δn(S) = 0.183 mol; amount of unused sulfur.

Δm(S) = 0.183 mol · 32.065 g/mol.

Δm(S) = 5.87 g.

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6
