Question
One commercial system removes SO2 emissions from smoke at 95 degrees C by the following set of balanced reactions
SO2 + Cl2 ------> SO2Cl2
SO2Cl2+2H2O -------->H2SO4+2HCl
H2SO4+Ca(OH)2----->CaSO4+2H2O
assuming the overall process is 90% efficient how many grams of CaSO4 may be produced from 80 g of SO2? report the answer to 3 significant figures
