Is sulphur dioxide an acid base or neutral?
Sulfur dioxide is an acidic oxide.
Is sulphur dioxide an oxide that has a pungent choking smell?
Yes
What happens when you add sulfur to oxygen?
it becomes sulphur oxide
What happens when oxygen reacts with potassium?
It forms an oxide
What happens when sodium oxide reacts with water?
It will burn
What reactions occur when sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide react with water in the rain clouds?
When sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide reacts with rain water they produce sulphuric acid and nitric acid respectively, such rains are called acid rains.
Is sulphur dioxide a basic oxide?
yes
What will you produce if you burn sulphur in the air?
You will get SO2 or sulphur dioxide, an acidic oxide
What is molecular formula for Sulfur Oxide?
SOx is the formula for sulphur oxide's. A common example is sulphur dioxide S02.
What happens when sulfur burns in oxygen?
yes,sulphur reacts with oxygen forming sulphur dioxide. s+o2------->so2
Is sulphur dioxide an acid base or neutral?
Sulfur dioxide is an acidic oxide.
What is the substance that causes the acid rain?
Sulphur , in a form of sulphur dioxide or sulphur oxide , I think. Acid rain can be caused by either nitric oxide or sulfur dioxide in the air, which result from the burning of fossil fuels.
When sulfur burns in air does it make sulfur oxide or sulfur dioxide?
It makes Sulphur Dioxide. and little Sulphur Trioxide.
Is sulphur dioxide an oxide that has a pungent choking smell?
Yes
What do you get if you heat copper sulphate?
i think copper oxide + sulphur dioxide
What is the word equation for sulfur plus oxygen?
"sulphur+oxygen->sulphur oxide."Se + O2 under pressure renders SeO2 (selenium dioxide). "Comment on the fact that the analagous reaction between sulphur and oxygen, although extremely slow, gives a product with a different stoichiometry". Part 1A Inorganic Chemistry Paper, University of Oxford, 2008.So the paper suggeststhat sulphur dioxide is not the product of direct combination of sulphur and oxygen. Why is this? Is it contaminated with some SO3?I think it's actually sulphur dioxide rather than sulphur oxide as someone else suggested. If you look at the reaction of carbon and oxygen, it doesn't produce carbon oxide, but carbon dioxide. So therefore I think if:Carbon + oxygen --> carbon dioxideThen:Sulphur + oxygen --> Sulphur dioxide
Is sulfur oxide an element or a compound?
Sulfur (sulphur) dioxide and sulfur trioxide all are compounds, as ANY oxide is.
