Carbon disulfide is formed by the reaction of coke (carbon) with sulfur dioxide. how many moles of cs2 will be generated if 8.0 moles of coke react with a surplus of sulfur dioxide? 5c 2so2 → cs2 4co

In the given reaction, carbon or coke and sulfur dioxide are reacted to each other to produce carbon disulfide and carbon monoxide. We are given with 8 moles of coke. 5 moles of coke produces 1 mole of carbon disulfide. hence for 8 moles of coke, 1.6 moles of carbon disulfide is produced.
