Don't all halogens have 8 valence electrons? They don't need to gain or lose any because they are already stable.
Answer:
1.5
Explanation:
Given that :
Compound A and B are formed from Sulfur + Oxygen.
Compound A :
6g sulfur + 5.99g Oxygen
Compound B:
8.6g sulfur + 12.88g oxygen
Comparing the ratios :
Compound A:
S : O = 6.00 : 5.99
S/0 = 6.0g S / 5.99g O
Compound B :
S : O = 8.60 : 12.88
S / O = 8.60g S / 12.88g O
Mass Ratio of A / mass Ratio of B
(6.0g S / 5.99g O) ÷ (8.60g S / 12.88g O)
(6.0 g S / 5.99g O) × (12.88g O / 8.60g S)
(6 × 12.88) / (5.99 × 8.60)
= 77.28 / 51.514
= 1.50017
= 1.5
