Sulfur (S) is a non-metallic element that can be found in coal. When coal is burned, sulfur is converted to sulfur dioxide and eventually to sulfuric acid that gives rise to the acid rain problem we now face. How many atoms are in 16.3 grams of S?        2. The atomic masses of the two stable isotopes of Boron are B-10 and B11. Their respective atomic masses and relative abundances are given as:                        B-10: 10.0129 amu and 19.78%                        B-11: 11.0093 amu
