A low-grade pyrite containing 32% S is mixed with 10 lb of pure sulfur per 100 lb of pyrites so the mixture will burn readily with air, forming a burner gas that analyzes 13.4% SO2, 2.7% O2, and 83.9% N2. No sulfur is left in the cinder. Calculate the percentage of the sulfur fired that burned to SO3. (The SO3 is not detected by the analysis.)
