Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is an unwelcome result of burning soft coal in power plants. Some
of the SO2 ends up as sulfuric acid in acid
precipitation. The net reaction is
2 SO2(g) + O2(g) + 2 H2O(l) —— 2 H2SO4(l)
What mass in grams of SO2 is needed to
react with 1672 g of O2?
Answer in units of g.

The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown below: reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of an element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? their identity changes in both reaction a and reaction b. their identity changes in reaction a but not in reaction b. their identity changes in reaction b but not in reaction a. their identity remains the same in both reaction a and reaction b.
