In coal, sulfur typically exists in the form of iron pyrites, FeS₂, or in organic compounds. Burning coal in power plants converts the sulfur to sulfur dioxide according to the following reaction: 4 FeS2(s) + 11 O2(g) --> 2 Fe₂O3(s) + 8 SO2(g) What mass (in grams) of sulfur dioxide is produced when 0.334 mol of oxygen gas reacts?
