Oxides, Peroxides, and Superoxides

Multiple Choice

H₂S is converted into elemental sulfur through the two-step process called the Claus process:
Step 1: 2 H₂S (g) + 3 O₂ (g) → 2 SO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g)
Step 2: 2 H₂S (g) + 3 O₂ (g) → 2 SO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g) Determine the number of electrons transferred in step one of the Claus process.
