Answer:

Explanation:

a )

PbS      +     2PbO   →     3Pb    +     SO₂

                  2 mole       3 moles       1 moles

b )

2 moles of PbO is required to produce 3 moles of Pb

17 moles of PbO is required to produce 3/2 x 17 moles of Pb

= 3/2 x 17 moles of Pb

= 25.5 moles of Pb .

c )

1 mole of  SO₂ needs 2 moles of PbO

27.3 mole of  SO₂ needs 2 x 27.3  moles of PbO

PbO needed = 2 x 27.3 moles

= 54.6 moles .

d )

PbS      +     2PbO   →     3Pb    +     SO₂

1 mole       2 mole    

1 mole  of  PbS requires 2 moles of PbO

17.6 mole  of  PbS requires 2 x 17.6  moles of PbO

PbO required = 2 x 17.6 moles

= 35.2 moles .

PbO available = 36 moles . So PbO is in excess .

Hence PbS is the limiting reagent .
