Consider two compounds. Compound A contains 15.7 g of sulfur and 18.6 of fluorine. Compound B contains 25.4 of sulfur and 60.2 g of flurine. A. What is the mass ratio of flurine to sulfur in Compound A. B. What is the mass ratio of fluorine to sulfur in Compound B. C. Using the law of definite proportions (also called the law of constant composition), could compound A and compound B be the same compound?
