Consider 70.0-g samples of two different compounds consisting of only sulfur and oxygen. One of the compounds consists of 35.0 g of sulfur, and the other has 28.0 g of sulfur. Determine the ratio in whole numbers of the masses of sulfur that combine with 1.00 g of oxygen between the two compounds.

    1 : 1.5

    Explanation:

    First Sample;

    Ratio of sulfur and Oxygen

    Mass of sulfur : Mass of oxygen

    Mass of oxygen = Mass of sample - Mass of sulfur = 70 - 35 = 35g

    35g : 35g

    1 : 1

    Second Sample;

    Ratio of sulfur and Oxygen

    Mass of sulfur : Mass of oxygen

    Mass of oxygen = Mass of sample - Mass of sulfur = 70 - 28 = 42g

    28g : 42g

    1 : 1.5

    Further reducing it to make oxygen 1;

    0.6667 : 1

    ratio in whole numbers of the masses of sulfur that combine with 1.00 g of oxygen between the two compounds;

    0.6667 : 1

    1 : 1.5
