When 10.0 g of sulfur is combined with 10.0 g of oxygen, 20.0 g of sulfur dioxide is formed. What mass of oxygen would be required to convert 10.0 g of sulfur into sulfur trioxide?

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
