Using Dimensional AnalysisExplanation:

Step 1: Define

[Given] 2.16 moles SO₂

[Solve] grams (mass) SO₂

Step 2: Identify Conversions

[PT] Molar Mass of S - 32.07 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of SO₂ - 32.07 + 2(16.00) = 64.07 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

[DA] Set up:                                                                                                     [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:                                                        

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.

138.391 g SO₂ ≈ 138 g SO₂

Atomicity occurs to prevent updates of the database occurring only partially, which can cause greater problems than rejecting the whole series outright.some are monatomic, diatomic, triatomic etc because it shows the number of atoms. for example, monatomic means it contains only one atom.

The reaction will shift to the right
