Hello!

I came across a problem in my chemistry homework that really had me confused this afternoon. The problem is as follows:

A mixture of 50.0 g of S and 1.00 x 10^2 g Cl2 is reacted completely to form S2Cl2 and SCl2. What is the mass of S2Cl2 formed?
The answer is 19.8, but I keep getting 105. grams. Can anyone provide some guidance about how I should approach the problem? I think that the SCl2 is confusing me, but I'm not sure how that works into the problem.

Assume that S₂Cl₂ was created first. How much was created? How much chlorine was left? Assume S₂Cl₂ reacted with left chlorine. How much reacted? How much was left?
