Jupiter’s moon Io was discovered to have high concentrations of sulfur oxides in its atmosphere. This, in combination with research into sulfur oxides relating to pollution on Earth, has led to renewed interest in sulfur oxide compounds. Scientists trying to synthesize compounds that may be on Io created hexasulfur dioxide. Write the chemical formula for this compound.

Respuesta :

Answer: The chemical formula of hexasulfur dioxide is [tex]S_6O_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Covalent compound is defined as the compound which is formed by the sharing of electrons between the atoms forming a compound. These are usually formed when two non-metals react.

The chemical name of the compound given to us is hexasulfur dioxide.

Sulfur and oxygen atoms are the non-metals and they form covalent compound.

When six sulfur and two oxygen atoms combine, it results in the formation of a compound having chemical formula of [tex]S_6O_2[/tex]

Hence, the chemical formula of hexasulfur dioxide is [tex]S_6O_2[/tex]
