3.112 In one experiment, the burning of 0.614 g of sulfur produced 1.246 g of sulfur dioxide as its only product. In a second experiment run to verify the outcome of the first, a sample was burned and 0.813 g of sulfur dioxide was obtained, but the student running the experiment forgot to determine the initial mass of sulfur burned. Describe how the data already obtained could be used to calculate the initial mass of the sulfur burned in the second experiment.
