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.
