Fluorine reacts with sulfur to form several different covalent compounds. Three of these compounds are SF₂, SF₄, and SF₆. Draw the Lewis structures for these compounds, and predict the molecular structures (including bond angles). Would you expect OF₄ to be a stable compound?

The compound SF6 is made by burning sulfur in an atmosphere of fluorine. The balanced equation is

Starting with a mixture of 1.6 mol of sulfur, S₈, and 35 mol of F₂,

38. Sulfur and fluorine form several different compounds including sulfur hexafluoride and sulfur tetrafluoride. Decomposition of a sample of sulfur hexafluoride produces 4.45 g of fluorine and 1.25 g of sulfur, while decomposition of a sample of sulfur tetra- fluoride produces 4.43 g of fluorine and 1.87 g of sulfur. Calcu- late the mass of fluorine per gram of sulfur for each sample and show that these results are consistent with the law of multiple proportions.
