5PRACTICE PROBLEM
A student in a chemistry lab prepared three different compounds containing only sulfur and oxygen. She then calculated the mass of each element in each of the compounds.
If the mass of oxygen in each compound per unit mass of sulfur is determined, and integer relationships are obtained, do the obtained numbers support the atomic theory?
