<h3>Answer:</h3>

They show the elements of make up a compound
They show the types of atoms that make up a molecule
They show the number of each type of atom in a molecule

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To answer this question we need to know what is a compound.

A compound is a substance that is made by two or more atoms of different elements that are chemically combined.
A chemical formula of a compound is a formula that shows the elements that make up a compound and also the types of atoms that make up the molecule.
Additionally, the chemical formula shows the number of each type of atom in a molecule.
In this case, the chemical formula of a molecule of H₂O shows that it is made up of one hydrogen atom and two oxygen atoms.

Sulfur reacts with oxygen and creates two compounds. Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen. Compound B

spayn [35]

Answer:

The mass ratio of oxygen rounded to the nearest whole no. 3 : 2

Explanation:

According to Law of Multiple proportion when two elements combine to make two or more different compounds, the mass ratio of the two element in the first compound, when divided by the mass ratio of the second compound , form a simple whole number ratio.

Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen

$\frac{1.34}{0.86}= 1.5$

Compound B contains 11.63 g of sulfur for every 10.49 g of oxygen

$\frac{11.643}{10.49}= 1.0$

Ratio of oxygen in each compound

always put the larger number over the smaller number.

$\frac{CompoundA}{Compound B}=\frac{1.5}{1.0}=\frac{3}{2}$

Why are we pulled to the center of the Earth and not into the much larger sun?

katrin [286]

Answer:

The sun's gravity pulls on the earth, and the earth pulls back on the sun at the same time. This is why the center of the solar system is not the center of the sun. As one gravitational body gets bigger than the other, it circles closer to the center of the system (shown in red).

hope this helps...
