Answer: The correct answer is Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Law of Conservation of mass states that mass can neither be destroyed not be formed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. Total mass in a chemical reaction remains conserved.

From the given chemical reaction:

On reactant side:

Number of oxygen atoms = 12

Number of sulfur atoms = 6

From the given options:

  • Option A:

Number of oxygen atoms = 12

Number of sulfur atoms = 6

  • Option B:

Number of oxygen atoms = 18

Number of sulfur atoms = 6

  • Option C:

Number of oxygen atoms = 9

Number of sulfur atoms = 6

  • Option D:

Number of oxygen atoms = 12

Number of sulfur atoms = 4

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.
