The burning of coal that contains a lot of sulfur.
Sulfur oxide is primarily caused by the burning of fossil fuels containing sulfur, such as coal and oil, in industrial processes and power generation. Incomplete combustion of these fuels leads to the release of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and sulfur trioxide (SO3) into the atmosphere.
When sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide are released into the air, they can cause air pollution and contribute to the formation of acid rain. This can harm ecosystems, damage buildings and infrastructure, and impact human health by causing respiratory problems.
They are the cause of acid rains.
Sulfur (sulphur) dioxide and sulfur trioxide all are compounds, as ANY oxide is.
The ionic formula for sulfur oxide is SO2.
Sulfur Oxide
sulfur oxide
Sulfur oxide can refer to both sulfur dioxide (SO2) and sulfur trioxide (SO3). The word equation for sulfur dioxide is sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide. The word equation for sulfur trioxide is sulfur + oxygen → sulfur trioxide.
Yes,it is an oxide.It is an oxide of sulphar.
The formula for sulfur oxide can vary based on the oxidation state of sulfur. For example, sulfur dioxide is represented by the formula SO2, while sulfur trioxide is represented by SO3.
You can not separate a pure substance, only mixtures of at least 2 compounds possibly may be separated. Anyhow sulfur oxide is NOT an existing compound. Alternatives are sulfur di-oxide and sulfur tri-oxide.
Sulfur oxide is not an ionic compound. It is a covalent compound formed by the sharing of electrons between sulfur and oxygen atoms.
