Question

Thank you!

The substance CS2 has a melting point of-110.8°C and a boiling point of 46.3°C. Its density at 20°C is 1.26 g/cm. It is highly inflammable a. Name this compound. b. Is CS2 organic or inorganic? c. How would you classify CS2(s) as to type of crystalline solid? d. Write a balanced equation for the combustion of this compound in air. (You will have to decide on the most likely oxidation products.) e. Would you expect the density of CS2 at 40°C to be greater or less than at 20°C? Explain.

Explanation / Answer

a) carbon disulfide

b) inorganic compound ( as it contains carbon atom but there is no C-C bond C-H bonds which define the characteristics of many organic reactions)

d) CS2(s) + 3 O2(g) = CO2(g) + 2 SO2(g)
