Explain the sulfur dioxide reacts with calcium oxide

Reference no: EM13678473

A particular coal encloses 2.5% sulfur by mass. While this coal is burned the sulfur is converted into sulfur dioxide gas. Explain the sulfur dioxide reacts with calcium oxide to form solid calcium sulfite.

1. State the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

2. Assume the coal is burned in a power plant that utilizes 2100 short tons of coal per day what mass of calcium oxide is needed daily to eliminate the sulfur dioxide?

3. Explain how many grams of calcium sulfite are produced daily by this power plant?
