[b] [18] [20] Styx and Nix are in an 9:11 resonance, while the resonance between Styx and Hydra has a ratio of 6:11. [c] The Laplace resonance also means that ratios of synodic periods are then such that there are 5 Styx–Hydra conjunctions and 3 Nix–Hydra conjunctions for every 2 conjunctions of Styx and Nix.
