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>

Explain obser made when flourine is bubbled in bromine water for sometime
lisabon 2012 [21]

Explanation:

Alkenes react in the cold with pure liquid bromine, or with a solution of bromine in an organic solvent like tetrachloromethane. The double bond breaks, and a bromine atom becomes attached to each carbon. The bromine loses its original red-brown color to give a colorless liquid. In the case of the reaction with ethene, 1,2-dibromoethane is formed.

What did Rutherford’s scattering experiment reveal about the structure of atoms?
Stels [109]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This experiment by Rutherford involved the firing of alpha particles at gold foils. It is also. called the gold foil experiment.

He fired these alpha particles at different points. He noticed that at some points, there were deflections, while at some other points, there were no deflections. It is necessary to state that these alpha particles are positively charged. For there to be a deflection, there must have been a kind of repulsion between the gold foil and the alpha particles.

From the basic physics of like repels like, he knew for sure that there must be dense positive core in the atom that is causing the deflection of the alpha particles. This enabled him to come up with the theory that the atom contained a small dense positive core called the nucleus

Which conditions are necessary for natural selection? Check all that apply.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Populations have genetic variation.

The environment changes.

Organisms must have specific traits in order to survive and reproduce.

Explanation:

Natural selection provides an advantage during an adverse condition for organisms that have a rich genetic variation in their population.

Also, environmental changes induced natural selection whereby organisms must adapt to changes around them.

For organisms to survive, they must have specific traits that gives them a competitive reproductive advantage.

When the temperature of an object changes by 10 °C the same temperature change in Kelvins would be
kumpel [21]
The answer to this question would be: <span> 10 °K

Kelvin and Celcius scales are different by 273</span> degrees but their ratio is the same. One degree in Kelvin is equal to one degree in Celcius. That mean,  10 °C change in Celcius would be same as <span> 10 °K changes in Kelvin too. </span>
