Unlike science fair volcanoes, real volcanoes realease many dangerous gases. One of the gases released is sulfur dioxide, which is a major component of acid rain. In order to remove sulfur dioxide from the atmosphere, government clean-up programs combine it with calcium oxide to form calcium sulfite, a much safer compound.
Here is the balanced equation:
SO2CaO --> CaSO3
Here are the questions:
1. How many molecules of sulfur dioxide can be neutralized using 3 kilograms of calcium oxide?
2. How many liters of sulfur dioxide gas are neutralized in Question 3? (assume STP)
