Just starting to get really frustrated with these. I know how to do them (I completed the first one without much issue) but cannot get the rest of them. I don't know what it is that I'm missing/doing wrong. will give addition points for the correct answer as well as good work. Thank you in advance!!!

a) An iron sulfide contains 36.5% S by mass. The iron sulfide is heated in an atmosphere of pure oxygen, which produces SO2(g) and an iron oxide containing 27.6% O by mass.

Write a balanced equation for the reaction.

If 1.0 kg of the iron sulfide reacts with excess oxygen, what is the theoretical yield of the iron oxide?

b) In the manufacture of Portland cement, limestone (CaCO3(s)) is decomposed into lime (CaO(s)) and CO2(g), in a kiln. Use data from Appendix C in your textbook to calculate how much heat is required to decompose 2.70 × 103 kg of limestone. (Assume that the heats of reaction are temperature independent.)

The following information is to be used for the next two questions. Molar absorptivity data for the cobalt and nickel complexes with 2,3-quinoxalinedithiol are εCo = 36400 and εNi = 5520 at 510 nm and εCo = 1240 and ε Ni = 17500 at 656 nm. A 0.514-g sample was dissolved and diluted to 100.0 mL. A 25.0-mL aliquot was treated to eliminate interferences; after addition of 2,3-quinoxalinedithiol, the volume was adjusted to 50.0 mL. This solution had an absorbance of 1.246 at 510 nm and 0.367 at 656 nm in a 1.00-cm cell.

1. Calculate the concentration of cobalt (in ppm) in the initial solution prepared by dissolving the sample.

2. Calculate the concentration of nickel (in ppm) in the initial solution prepared by dissolving the sample.

Steam distillation. ANSWER IN DETAIL AND I WILL REWARD FIVE STARS TO FIRST PERSON TO ANSWER!!!!!!

A student steam distilled a mixtrue of toluene (bp 110.8 degrees Celsius) and water and noticed that distillate contained a larger volume of touleune than water. The student said to the professor, "I know there is something wrong with my experiment. I should have more water than toleune because water has a lowerboiling point. Should I redo the experiment?" The professor replied "do whatever you need to do" A classmate then said, "No, you dont need to redo it you DO have more water."

Explain in detail why the classmate is correct. Use calculations to support your explanation. Label all quantities used. Include all units.
