Question

How much sulfur (in tons), present in the original materials, would result in that quantity of S)2

Answer 1

Sulfur reacts with oxygen to produce sulfur dioxide. That is for every mole of sulfur reacted, one mole of sulfur dioxide also is produced. With the given mole of sulfur dioxide, the amount of sulfur in mass is determined by multiplying the number of moles to the molar mass of sulfur (32 g/mol).
