Sulfur and fluorine form several different compounds including sulfur hexafluoride and sulfur tetrafluoride. Decomposition of a sample of sulfur hexafluoride produced 4.43 g of fluorine and 1.24 gof sulfur, while decomposition of a sample of sulfur tetrafluoride produced 4.41 g of fluorine and 1.85 gof sulfur.

Calculate the mass of fluorine per gram of sulfur for the sample of sulfur hexafluoride.

Calculate the mass of fluorine per gram of sulfur for the sample of sulfur tetrafluoride.

Show that these results are consistent with the law of multiple proportions.

CAN SOMEONE SHOW ME HOW TO DO THESE PROBLEMS?

A sample of H2SO4 contains 2.02 g of hydrogen, 32.07 g of sulfur, and 64.00 g of oxygen. How many grams of sulfur and grams of oxygen are present in a second sample of H2SO4 containing 8.78 g of hydrogen?

Mass of Sulfer = ____ g

Mass of Oxygen = _____ g

2. Two elements, R and Q , combine to form two binary compounds. In the first compound, 18.5 g of R combines with 3.00 g of Q . In the second compound, 7.00 g of R combines with 4.50 g of Q . Show that these data are in accord with the law of multiple proportions. If the formula of the second compound is RQ , what is the formula of the first compound?

Compund I: _____

3. In a combustion reaction, 49.0 g of hydrocarbon reacts with 96.0 g of oxygen to produce water and carbon dioxide. If 57.7 g of water is produced, how much carbon dioxide is produced?

Mass= ______g

In a series of experiments, a chemist prepared three different compounds that contain only iodine and fluorine and determined the mass of each element in each compound:

(a) Calculate the mass of fluorine per gram of iodine in each compound. (b) How do the numbers in part (a) support the atomic theory?

b) When all three numbers are divided with 0.15, it gives: 5, 3, and 7. So, F and I form compounds in constant, whole number ratios. This is a law of multiple proportions and goes along with Dalton’s atomic theory since the F and I atoms combine in known ratios, and the masses of atoms are constant.

35. Two different compounds containing osmium and oxygen have the following masses of oxygen per gram of osmium: 0.168 and 0.3369 g. Show that these amounts are consistent with the law of multiple proportions.
