1. Understand the Chemical Formula:
* SO₃ represents one molecule of sulfur trioxide.
* It contains one sulfur (S) atom and three oxygen (O) atoms.
2. Calculate Moles of Sulfur:
* Since there's one sulfur atom per molecule, there's a 1:1 mole ratio of sulfur to sulfur trioxide.
* Moles of sulfur = Moles of SO₃ = 2.00 moles
3. Calculate Moles of Oxygen:
* There are three oxygen atoms per molecule of sulfur trioxide, giving a 3:1 mole ratio of oxygen to sulfur trioxide.
* Moles of oxygen = 3 * Moles of SO₃ = 3 * 2.00 moles = 6.00 moles
Therefore:
* There are 2.00 moles of sulfur in 2.00 moles of sulfur trioxide.
* There are 6.00 moles of oxygen in 2.00 moles of sulfur trioxide.
