First what you want to do is find the atomic masses of each element involved in the compound and then add them up to find the total molecular mass. Multiply any weight by the number of the same type of atom that's in the compound.
Sulfuric acid = H2SO4
Hydrogen = 1.01 × 2 = 2.02 grams
Sulfur = 32.1 grams
Oxygen = 16.0 × 4 = 64.0 grams
------------------------------------------
Sulfuric acid = 98.1 grams
Then we take the mass of sulfur and divide it by the total mass of the compound to reach its percent composition.
32.1 grams ÷ 98.1 grams = .327 = 32.7% sulfur in sulfuric acid

What is balanced equation of sulfur and Hydrochloric acid?
Sulfur does not react with hydrochloric acid.
What is the balanced equation for the reaction of sulfur and hydrochloric acid?
Sulfur does not react with that acid
How do you recover sulfur from sulfur sludge?
How do you get sulphur by using Sodium thiosulfate + Hydrochloric acid
What happens when sulphur is put in hydrochloric acid?
There is no reaction per se other than the formation of HCl gas. H2SO4 (aq) + HCl (aq) ----> HCl (g) H2SO4 (aq)
What do you get when you react sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid?
Sodium chloride, Water, Sulfur and Sulfur dioxide
Is sulfuric acid hydrochloric acid?
No, these are two different chemicals. Hydrochloric acid, or hydrogen chloride, is a compound of hydrogen and chlorine. Sulfuric acid, is a compound of hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen.
What will happen if you mix iron sulfur mixture and hydrochloric acid?
Well, if we mix iron sulfur mixture and hydrochlonic acid, only the iron reacts.
What occurs when Iron and Sulfur is mixed with Hydrochloric Acid?
Iron will react, dissolving in acid and with hydrogen gas escaping from the surface. Sulfur stays unchanged.
What acid is in a human?
Gastric acid is hydrochloric acid and a large percent of potassium.
What happens when water and sulfur mix?
It turns into sulfuric acid. Then add salt, and it becomes hydrochloric acid. Awesome, huh? I have some sulfur, and I am going to try it.
What is the difference between hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid?
Hydrochloric acid is HCl, one hydrogen atom and one chlorine. Sulfuric acid is H2SO4, two hydrogen, one sulfur, four oxygen atoms.
What percent of hydrochloric acid and nitric acid to prepar aqua regia?
66%
