Question

Q2 Sulphur trioxide gas is obtained by the combustion of pyrites (FeS2) according to the following reaction: 4FES2 + 1502 2Fe,03 + 8S03 The reaction is accompanied by the following side reaction: 4FES2 + 110, – 5FE203 + 8S02 Assume that 80% (weight) of the pyrites charged reacts to give sulphur trioxide and 20% reacts giving sulphur dioxide. a) How many kilograms pf pyrites charged will give 100 kg of SO,? b) How many kilograms of oxygen will be consumed in the reaction? Mwt: C,H, = 42, NH3 = 17,02 = 32, C,H,N = 53, H,0 = 18, N2 = 28, FeS, = 120 Fe,03 = 136, SO, = 80, SO2 = 64
