What is the empirical formula of sulphur dioxide which contains 50% by mass of sulphur

Question what are you doing the same thing you guys have a good time

Explanation:

is this the same question why did they do that and how much they do it

Empirical formula is SO2.

Explanation:

So the fraction of Sulphur is 0.50 and the fraction of oxygen is 0.50.

Dividing by the atomic masses of sulphur and oxygen:

S =.50 / 32 = 0.015625

O =.50 / 16 = 0.3125

Ratio of S: O = 0.015625 / 0.015625 to 0.3125 / 0.015625

= 1:2.
