Sulfur has the coefficient of 2, and nothing else. This indicates Sulfur has 2 atoms. 


<span>Oxygen on the other hand, has a subscript of 2, as well as the coefficient of 2. Multiplying those, and you see Oxygen has 4 atoms. 
</span>
So your answer is 2

Also remember there is a 2 in front of S meaning there are 2 Sulfurs. 
<span>If it was S02 it would be 1 Sulfur as there is no number in front of sulfer. </span>

<span>Remember the number in front of a element, represents how many atoms there are :)</span>

Gwar [14]

Answer:b. gravitational, kinetic, thermal

Explanation:

The above explains the mechanism of the core forming process on earth/planet.

It is believed that this process might has contributed significantly to a planet's early stages heating. The time when these core-forming event happened is thought to have been mainly completed very early when Earth was young . The type of this event rather than it being seen as a single catastrophic event, it is likely to have been as a result of contractions on the earth severally.

The addition of partially differentiated material from another giant impact the rate of this spasm , and it increases each time the planet's mass is to increased.

This is a little on the history of planetary evolution.

We saw in the calorimeter experiment that the combustion of a fuel is exothermic. what can you then say about the formation of a
ankoles [38]

Answer:

This question appear incomplete

Explanation:

This question appear incomplete. However, fuel is formed through a natural phenomenon involving the conversion of large amount dead and decayed organisms (usually algae and zooplanktons) to combustible fuel through exposure to relatively high temperature and pressure (over millions of years) in the earth's crust. Thus, since this involves a sort of absorption of heat energy (from the earth's crust), it can be referred to be an endothermic reaction.
