Question:

The bad smell of water containing hydrogen sulfide can be removed by the action of chlorine. The reaction is
H2S(aq) + Cl2(aq) → 2HCl(aq) + S(s)
If the hydrogen sulfide content of contaminated water is 22 ppm by mass, calculate the amount of Cl2 (in grams) required to remove all the H2S from 2.0 × 102 gallons of water. (1 gallon = 3.785 L.)
