4. Given the balanced equation: 2Na + S → Na₂S How many grams of sulfur are needed to react with 43 grams of Na? Round to the nearest whole number.

a. 119 g
b. 158 g
c. 32 g
d. 30 g

Option D. 30 g

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

2Na + S —> Na₂S

Next, we shall determine the masses of Na and S that reacted from the balanced equation. This is can be obtained as:

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g

Molar mass of S = 32 g/mol

Mass of S from the balanced equation = 1 × 32 = 32 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted with 32 g of S.

Finally, we shall determine the mass sulphur, S needed to react with 43 g of sodium, Na. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted with 32 g of S.

Therefore, 43 g of Na will react with = (43 × 32)/46 = 30 g of S.

Thus, 30 g of S is needed for the reaction.
