Explanation

Question 16 of 22

1

Stage 1 of the contact process is making sulfur dioxide: S(s)+O2(g)→SO2(g). How is this done?

Select one of the following:

  • By burning sulfur in air

  • By reacting it with oxygen

  • By absorbing it in oxygen

  • By diluting it with oxygen

Explanation

Question 17 of 22

1

Stage 2 of the contact process is making sulfur trioxide: 2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g) ΔH=−196kJ/mol. How is this done?

Select one of the following:

  • Sulfur dioxide is reacted with oxygen

  • Sulfur dioxide is burnt in air

  • Sulfur dioxide is absorbed into oxygen

  • Sulfur dioxide is diluted with oxygen

Explanation

Question 18 of 22

1

It is called the contact process because in stage 2, the two gases react together in contact with a solid catalyst, Vanadium(V) Oxide

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 19 of 22

1

The forward reaction is exothermic so the yield would be increased by using a low temperature but due to rate of reaction, it is carried out at 450℃

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 20 of 22

1

There are fewer molecules on the right so the yield would increase with pressure, but as the yield is already 98%, what is the pressure used?

Select one of the following:

  • 2 atmospheres

  • 200 atmospheres

  • 50 atmospheres

  • 1000 atmospheres

Explanation

Question 21 of 22

1
