1 mole of potassium permanganate and 1 mole of ferrous sulfide are reacted in presence of excess hydrochloric acid, how many moles of Ferric sulfate will produce?

1 mole of potassium permanganate and 1 mole of ferrous sulfide are reacted in presence of excess hydrochloric acid, how many moles of Ferric sulfate will produce? Correct Answer 5/18

The balanced chemical reaction is 18KMnO4 + 10FeS + 32H2SO4 -> 18MnSO4 + 5Fe2(SO4)3 + 9K2SO4 + 32H2O, => KMnO4 is limiting reagent, => moles of Fe2(SO4)3 = (5/18)*1 = 5/18.
