S + O2 --> SO2.
32 + (2*16) --> (32+32).
32 + 32 --> (64).
So, divided by 32.

1S + 1O2 --> 2 SO2.

S+O2 -----> SO2.

Sorry for my above comment. S is 32. So 32 + 32 = 64 that gives 1kg S needs 1 kg of O to produce 2kg of SO2, answer is true.

S + O2 ---> SO2.

16 + 32 ---> (16+32).

This shows 1kg sulphur requires 2 kg O2 to produce 3kg of SO2.

1 kg S requires 1 kg of O2 to Produce kg of SO2.

S2 + 2O2 = 2SO2.

So, how it is required 1 kg S and 1 kg O to produce 2 kg of SO2?
