Fluorine (F) and sulfur (S) can form several different compounds. In one analysis it shown that the compound has 5.55 g fluorine and 1.56 g of sulfur ; in a another analysis there was 4.57 g fluorine and 1.93 g of sulfur. Are these analysis consistent with a law of multiple proportion? Why? ( the why part is the math we did on the board, so it is not enough to say "yes" or "no" you must show work to show why you think it is a "yes" or a "no".
