Conservation of mass. The mass that reacts must equal the mass of the products.
The titrant for this exercise. suppose Ca(OH)₂ were used as the titrant, instead of NaOH. This will make the titrant twice as concentrated in hydroxide ion. the analyte will still be HC₂H₃O₂. the stoichiometry ratio of HC₂H₃O₂ to Ca(OH)₂ is 1 : 2.
The balanced reaction of the given condition as follow :
Ca(OH)₂ + 2HC₂H₃O₂ ------> Ca(C₂H₃O₂)₂ + 2H₂O
from the equation it is clear that stoichiometry of Ca(OH)₂ is 1 and the stoichiometry of HC₂H₃O₂ is 2. therefore the stoichiometry ratio of HC₂H₃O₂ to Ca(OH)₂ is 1 : 2.
Thus, The titrant for this exercise. suppose Ca(OH)₂ were used as the titrant, instead of NaOH. This will make the titrant twice as concentrated in hydroxide ion. the analyte will still be HC₂H₃O₂. the stoichiometry ratio of HC₂H₃O₂ to Ca(OH)₂ is 1 : 2.

Actually, we can answer the problem even without the first statement. All we have to do is write the reaction for the production of sulfur trioxide.
2 S + 3 O₂ → 2 SO₃
The stoichiometric calculations is as follows:
6 g S * 1 mol/32.06 g S = 0.187 mol S
Moles O₂ needed = 0.187 mol S * 3 mol O₂/2 mol S = 0.2805 mol O₂
Since the molar mas of O₂ is 32 g/mol,
Mass of O₂ needed = 0.2805 mol O₂ * 32 g/mol = 8.976 g O₂
