Question

The products of combustion of an aliphatic thiol ( $R S H)$ at $298\, K$ are

• A. $CO _{2(g)}, H _{2} O _{(g)}$ and $SO _{2(g)}$
• B. $CO _{2(g)}, H _{2} O _{(l)}$ and $SO _{2(g)}$
• C. $CO _{2(l)}, H _{2} O _{(l)}$ and $SO _{2(g)}$
• D. $CO _{2(g)}, H _{2} O _{(l)}$ and $SO _{2( l)}$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$RSH + O _{2} \longrightarrow CO _{2(g)}+ H _{2} O _{( l )}+ SO _{2(g)}$
