Francisco Tapia · Answer 1

8 mols of hydrogen will react with 1 mol of sulfur

Jeremy Jarvis · Answer 2

If this is the reaction:

8H2 + S8 - > 8H2S

For every 1 mole of S8 the reacts, it requires 8 moles H2 to form 8 moles of H2S.

As an example, if it is required to form 3.5 moles of H2S then, 3.5 moles of H2 would be needed and 3.5/8 = 0.4375 moles of H8 would be needed as well.
