What is the word equation for sulphur when burned?
The word equation for sulfur when it burns is: sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide.
What element burns with a blue flame and gives off a highly acidic gas?
Chlorine is the element that burns with a blue flame and gives off a highly acidic gas when it undergoes combustion.
What do fossil fuels like oil and coal contain in small amounts as an impurity?
Sulphur Impurities! Coal and oil contain sulfur impurities. When these fuels burn, the sulfur burns too which releases sulfur dioxide (SO 2) gas. Sulfur dioxide causes breathing problems for living creatures and contributes to acid rain.
What compound is formed when you burn an element in air?
When an element burns in air, it reacts with oxygen to form a compound known as an oxide. The specific oxide formed depends on the element being burned. For example, when carbon burns, it forms carbon dioxide (CO2) and when magnesium burns, it forms magnesium oxide (MgO).
When fuels burn what element present in the impurities in a fossil fuel may produce sulfur dioxide?
Sulfur is the element present in impurities in fossil fuels that can produce sulfur dioxide when the fuel burns.
Sulphar burns with oxygen to form?
When you burn sulphur with oxygen you create sulphur dioxide or sulphur trioxide.
When sulfur burns in air does it make sulfur oxide or sulfur dioxide?
It makes Sulphur Dioxide. and little Sulphur Trioxide.
Is sulfur trioxide a primary or secondary pollutant?
Coal and oli contain sulphur. When either one burns, it produces sulphur dioxide. The sulphur dioxide gradually turns into sulphur trioxide which mixes with rain and becomes acid rain. It is easy to remove the sulphur in refineries or power plants.
What happens when sulfur burns to make sulfur Dioxide?
it mixes with clouds and creates acid rain
Can sulfur burn?
Sulphur burns in air (oxygen ) to give sulphur dioxide. S + O2 ---> SO2
What is the word equation for sulphur when burned?
The word equation for sulfur when it burns is: sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide.
What is formed when sulphur burns in oxegyen?
S + O2 = SO2 You get Sulphur Dioxide (It smells like burnt matches and is a poisonous gas). Lots of it is released by volcanoes.
Why does a power-station owner prefer to buy a low-sulphur coal than ordinary coal?
The sulphur in fuels produces sulphur dioxide when it burns, which is a major cause of acid rain. Low sulphur fuels are less polluting.
What is balanced chemical equation when carbon disulphide burns in air to give carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide?
Cs2 + 3 o2 → co2 + 2 so2
What one of these changes is reversable old rock is heated to form a different rock sulphur burns to form sulphur dioxide water is heated to form water vapour?

What element burns with a blue flame and gives off a highly acidic gas?
Chlorine is the element that burns with a blue flame and gives off a highly acidic gas when it undergoes combustion.
Ethyl mercaptan burns to produce what which gas?
On combustion: C2H6S + 6O2 ---> 2CO2 + 3H2O + SO2 All of the products of the reaction (carbon dioxide, water, sulphur dioxide) are gases
