Answer:
3853 g
Step-by-step explanation:
M_r: 107.87
16Ag + S₈ ⟶ 8Ag₂S; ΔH°f = -31.8 kJ·mol⁻¹
1. Calculate the moles of Ag₂S
Moles of Ag₂S = 567.9 kJ × 1 mol Ag₂S/31.8kJ = 17.858 mol Ag₂S
2. Calculate the moles of Ag
Moles of Ag = 17.86 mol Ag₂S × (16 mol Ag/8 mol Ag₂S) = 35.717 mol Ag
3. Calculate the mass of Ag
Mass of g = 35.717 mol Ag × (107.87 g Ag/1 mol Ag) = 3853 g Ag
You must react 3853 g of Ag to produce 567.9 kJ of heat
