How many moles are in 96.0 grams of sulfur?

There are 2.99 moles or 3 moles of Sulfur in 96 grams

Explanation:

You divide 96 by the atomic weight of Sulfur which is 32.065. For every 32.065 grams of Sulfur you will get 1 mole of Sulfur. The answer should be 2.99 or 3 moles of Sulfur.

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
