Question:

In2S3 can be converted into metallic indium by a twostep process. First, it is converted into In2O3 by reaction with oxygen. The other product of the reaction is SO2. Indium metal is obtained by reaction of In2O3 with carbon. Assume that the other product of the second reaction is carbon dioxide.

(a) Write the two equations for this process.

(b) Calculate the mass, in kilograms, of indium produced from 35.7 kg In2S3, assuming excesses of the other reactants.
