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>

liq [111]

Explanation:

Mole ratio of Oxygen to Hydrogen gas = 1 : 2.

If we use 3.0 moles of oxygen gas, we would need 3.0 * 2 = 6.0 mol of hydrogen gas.

15. A politician campaigning for election guaran tees that "every household will have 100\% pure water from every tap." Evaluate
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

It is not possible to have 100 percent pure water. Therefore the success rate is not certain

Explanation:

Naturally, pure water does not exist. Water is a universal solvent. As water falls in to the earth as rain, from the atmosphere water picks up particles and minerals. Immediately water hits the ground it reacts with minerals from soil upon which it lands and then it enters into streams and rivers.

Hundred percent pure water is dangerous to life, because it has no minerals which makes it corrosive, if a hundred percent pure water enters the body it will suck off the minerals in the body.

The politician should make a promise of hundred percent pure water to the people in the industrial sector and laboratories because that is where it is useful.
