How many grams of calcium sulfite are produced daily


A particular coal contains 2.5% sulfur by mass. When this coal is burned, the sulfur is converted into sulfur dioxide gas. The sulfur dioxide reacts with calcium oxide to form solid calcium sulfite.

Part A
Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

Part B
If the coal is burned in a power plant that uses 2000 tons of coal per day, what mass of calcium oxide is required daily to eliminate the sulfur dioxide?

Part C
How many grams of calcium sulfite are produced daily by this power plant?
