hydrogen sulfide is composed of two elements: hydrogen and sulfur. in an experiment, 6.500 g of hydrogen sulfide is fully decomposed into its elements. if 0.384 g of hydrogen is obtained in its experiment, how many grams of sulfur must be obtained?

Welcome to OpenStudy. First, you need to write the balanced equation for the reaction.

anonymous · Answer

And after that determine how many moles of each constituent there are.

jfraser · Answer

you don't NEED a reaction to understand this problem, what you need is to understand the law of conservation of mass.

If hydrogen sulfide contains ONLY hydrogen and sulfur atoms, and you get 0.384g of hydrogen from a 6.500g sample, what must be the remaining mass of sulfur?
