I got a summer packet prior to going into AP chem and i am dumbfounded on one of the questions as follows:
"In the human body, the toxic compound hydrogen cyanide is neutralized by the acid, H2S2O3, according to the reaction HCN + H2S2O3 yields HCNS + H2SO3. If 1.000 mg of H2S2O3, is available in the body, will this be enough to neutralize 2.000 mg of HCN swallowed by a person?"
Any help is greatly appreciated.
