2) Find the empirical formula of sulfur oxide if 3.2g of sulfur reacts with oxygen to
produce 6.4g sulfur oxide (Ar sulfur = 32; oxygen = 16)
* Conservation of mass tells us that the mass of oxygen equals the mass of sulfur oxide
minus the mass of sulfur the mass of oxygen reacted = 6.4 - 3.2 = 3.2g
3) Find the empirical formula of lead sulfide produced when 207g of lead react
with 32g of sulfur (Ar lead = 207; sulfur = 32)
4) It is found that 207g of lead combined with oxygen to form 239g of lead oxide
find the formula of the lead oxide (Ar lead = 207; oxygen = 16)
* 207g of lead + an unknown amount of oxygen = 239g lead oxide (therefore
239g 207g = 32g of oxygen)
5) Find the empirical formula of sulfur oxide if 3.2g of sulfur reacts with oxygen to
produce 6.4g sulfur oxide (Ar sulfur = 32; oxygen = 16)
* Conservation of mass tells us that the mass of oxygen equals the mass of sulfur
oxide minus the mass of sulfur the mass of oxygen reacted = 6.4 - 3.2 = 3.2g
