How are a sulfur molecule and a sulfur dioxide molecule different?
A sulfur molecule contains many sulfur atoms. These atoms combined together to form sulfur molecule i.e. S8.
How are a sulfur molecule and a sulfur dioxide molecule similar?
Both a sulfur molecule (S8) and a sulfur dioxide molecule (SO2) contain the element sulfur. Beyond that they are very different.
Why sulfur trioxide triangular while sulfur dioxide is bent?
In sulphur dioxide one of the two lone pairs of sulphur is free so it is bent, while in sulphur trioxide both the lone pairs of sulphur are involved in bond formation so it is trigonal molecule.
Is carbon disulfide made up of atoms or molecules?
Sulfur dioxide is a molecule composed of one sulfur atom bound to two oxygen atoms.
When sulfur burns in air does it make sulfur oxide or sulfur dioxide?
It makes Sulphur Dioxide. and little Sulphur Trioxide.
How are sulfur molecule and sulfur dioxide molecule similar?
sulful and oxygen bath have six valence eletron,the molecule bond in so2
Similarity of sulfur molecule and sulfur dioxide molecule?
The similarity of sulfur molecule and the sulfur dioxide molecule is the type of bond.
What is the chemical compound name for SO2?
If it is bonded to a metal, then it is a polyatomic ion, sulfite If it is alone, then it is sulfur dioxide
How many molecules are in one mole of sulfur dioxide SO2?
It depends how much sulphur dioxide you have. If you mean how many atoms does a sulphur dioxide molecule have the answer is 3. 1 sulphur and 2 oxygen atoms.
Is sulphur dioxide the same as sulphur?
No, sulfur is an element and sulfur dioxide is a gaseous compound. Sulfur dioxide is the combustion product of sulfur in an oxygen atmosphere (S+O2 --> SO2) Where sulfur is an element, sulfur dioxide is a compound and where sulfur is an insoluble yellow solid, sulfur dioxide is a colorless soluble gas.
What happens when sulfur burns to make sulfur Dioxide?
it mixes with clouds and creates acid rain
What is the difference between a sulfur molecule and a sulfur dioxide molecule?
A sulfur molecule is 2 sulfur atoms covalently bonded. A sulfur dioxide molecule is a sulfur atom and 2 oxygen atoms covalently bonded.
