Moles of sulphur needed to produce 15.0 mol of sulphur dioxide is 15.0 moles.
In order to determine the number of moles needed to produce a given amount of substance all you need to do is to write a balanced chemical equation first and then determine the mole ratio of the equation.
In this case mole ratio is 1:1:1 that is to say that 1 mole of sulphur reacts with 1 mole of oxygen to produce 1 mole of sulphur dioxide. Hence 15 moles of sulphur is needed to produce 15 mole of sulphur dioxide.
