Are responsible for the production of photo-chemical smog?
Mainly oxides of nitrogen, such as nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide.
What substances responsible for acid precipitation are released into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels?
Oxides of nitrogen and sulphur.
What elements does bauxite contain?
Bauxite is an ore containing aluminum, iron, silicon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and sometimes titanium. It consists primarily of oxides and hydroxides of aluminum, iron oxides, and often the alumino-silicate clay kaolinite.
What is the difference between oxide and super oxide?
normal oxides of metals have general formula M3O. & super oxides have general formula MO2. super oxides are coloured & paramagnetic in nature due to presence of unpaired electrons.on moving down side the group tendency to form super oxides increases.& that of normal oxides decreases. oxides of metals on dissolving in water form their hydroxides only.while super oxides form hydroxides with the release of H2O2 & H2.
What toxins does garbage release?
Garbage produces many toxins such as sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and volatile organic compounds
The release of oxides of sulfur and nitrogen into the air can cause acid rain?
true.
What are the types of oxides?
Examples: uranium oxides, sodium oxides, lead oxides, aluminium oxide, plutonium oxides etc.
Why is burning of non metals responsible for acid rain?
Burning creates oxides such as C02 and nitrous oxides. These react with the water in the air (H20), combining with the hydrogen in the water to form acids: carbonic acid and nitric acid respectively.
What pollutants are pollutants in the air because of human activity?
the answer to this question is pretty simple and it primary pollutants
What are metallic oxides?
metallic oxides are that type of oxides which contain metallic metals and oxides and which are cations like lithium, potassium e.t.c.
When fuels such as coal and gas are burned what do they release?
Carbon dioxide and possibly oxides of sulphur, hydrogen and nitrogen.
What are metal oxides with examples?
Metal oxides are oxides of metal. They are ionic in nature and form basic oxides. Eg: Na2O, MgO,etc
