The removal of H2S of LPG(natural gas) can be made through treatment with aqueous solution to 20% by mass of diethanolamine (DEA) reaction as below: (see the link)

Knowing that were used an excess of 100% of the base and a system without recycle, the mass of the solution of DEA, in Kg, put to react with 10 moles of H2S is:
Masses molars: in g / mole, H = 1, C = 12, N = 14, O = 16, S = 32
The answer is 10.5 (how come this answer)
