What is the compound formed when sulphur reacts with oxygen?

What is sulfer dioxide?
sulfur dioxide is sulfur and oxygen interact with each other.

Sulfur Dioxide
How can air pollution cause indirect harm to humans?
Acid rain is caused by sulfer dioxide pollution and reacts with the moisture in the clouds to cause the rain water to becomedilute sulfuric acid which then falls and erodes buildings and statues and also makes lakes and rivers acid there-for killing all living organisums in the river. acid rain also kills wildlife. these are all indirect ways of harming humans via pollution. sulfer dioxide is emmited from car exausts and power stations. if the sulfer was burnt in incomplete combusion then it will form sulfer monoxide (one sulfer atom joined with one oxygen atom) but when this gets into the air it reacts with surrounding oxygen atoms to make sulfer dioxide. (mon) from MONoxide means 1 and (di) from DIoxide means 2. in this case the MON and DI tell you how many oxygen atoms are in the molecule of sulfer. once the sulfer monoxide reacts with the oxygen and makes sulfer dioxide it then reacts with the moisture in the clouds to make acid rain.
