Can you die by breathing in too much sulphur?

yes


What would happen if you breathed in too much carbon dioxide?

Air contains oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and other compounds. We take carbon dioxide into our lungs all the time, but our lungs keep the oxygen. However, if you were in a room with ONLY carbon dioxide, you would die--not from carbon dioxide per se, but from lack of oxygen.


How can reducing sulfur content in fuel reduce acidic gas emission?

reducing the sulphur content in fuels will effectivily reduce the amount of sulphur realised into the atmosphere. In the gas phase sulphur dioxide is oxidised by reaction with the hydroxyl radical via an intermolecular reaction: SO2 + OH· → HOSO2· which is followed by: HOSO2· + O2 → HO2· + SO3 In the presence of water, sulphur trioxide (SO3) is converted rapidly to sulphuric acid: SO3(g) + H2O(l) → H2SO4(l) the lower the sulphur released into the atmosphere the lower the amount of sulphuric acid is formed


How is coal purified?

It is NOT purified, but baked in coke ovens. When baked the residue is 'coke' An impure form of carbon. Gases are liberated too!!!! They are carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide, Ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, methane. These gases are collected, not released into the atmosphere, and industrial use is made of them .


How is carbon dioxide bad for humans?

Too much of it can cause you to suffocate, however we take in a good amount of it every time we take a breath. inhaled air contains about 0.5 percent of co2 but exhaled air contains 4%-5% of co2

What causes a rotten egg smell from a car exhaust?

Too much sulphur in the fuel you are using. Buy gas from a different dealer and drive at least 100 niles or more. The excess sulphur is being oxidized by the catalytic converter into sulphur dioxide (rotten eggs).

Use of sulphur?

Sulfur (or sulphur) is an element on the periodic table. Some uses of sulfur include sulfuric acid, fertilizer, and winemaking.


What is dissolved in rainwater and what is its effect?

nitrate, nitrite and some amount of sulphur dioxide and cabon mono oxide too


What would happen if much carbon dioxide in the air is not used by plants in food making?

When there is too much carbon dioxide collecting in the air and the plants do not use it up, it may grow to toxic proportions. The content of oxygen will reduce in proportion to the amount of carbon dioxide.


Why is it a problem to have too much co2 in the lunar module?

It is a HUGE deal to have too much co2 in the Lunar Module, because co2 is carbon dioxide. All organisms -except plants- breath oxygen. If you have too much carbon dioxide, and not enough air, you will suffocate to death!


How can you choke on air?

If the nitrogen or carbon dioxide content in the air is too high, or if the oxygen content of the air is too low.


What happens if plants get too much carbon dioxide?

The plants would have a harder time growing. Carbon Dioxide is similar for plants as Oxygen is for people. However, plants can often adapt to changes in "air quality" much better then people can.


What will happen if there is too much carbon dioxide in air?

If there is too much carbon dioxide in the air:the greenhouse effect will increaseaverage temperatures will riseglaciers and ice caps will meltsea levels will risecoastal areas and low islands will be submerged under the seaprobably worse hurricanes and other storms


What is called the flow air into the lungs and out the lungs?

Oxygen is breathed in and carbon dioxide is breathed out as it is deadly to humans. Too much carbon dioxide breathed in will cause brain damage and eventually death.

Is too much sulphur bad?

Yes when inhaled, eaten or if left on the skin for long periods of time. sulphur also releases toxic gases into the area in which it is in.
