Similarity of sulfur molecule and sulfur dioxide molecule?
The similarity of sulfur molecule and the sulfur dioxide molecule is the type of bond.
What is the primary source of sulfur dioxide?
Volcanoes produce more sulfur dioxide than any other cause. Some sulfur dioxide is also release from the burning of sulfur-rich fossil fuels.
What gases are the sources of smog?
Sulfur dioxide is main source of gas in smog.
What is the main compound of sulfur dioxide?
Sulfur dioxide has the chemical formula SO2.
How does sulfur dioxide affect air pollution?
Sulfur dioxide is a gas. It is invisible and has a nasty, sharp smell. It reacts easily with other substances to form harmful compounds, such as sulfuric acid, sulfurous acid and sulfate particles.About 99% of the sulfur dioxide in air comes from human sources. The main source of sulfur dioxide in the air is industrial activity that processes materials that contain sulfur, eg the generation of electricity from coal, oil or gas that contains sulfur. Some mineral ores also contain sulfur, and sulfur dioxide is released when they are processed. In addition, industrial activities that burn fossil fuels containing sulfur can be important sources of sulfur dioxide.Sulfur dioxide is also present in motor vehicle emissions, as the result of fuel combustion. In the past, motor vehicle exhaust was an important, but not the main, source of sulfur dioxide in air. However, this is no longer the case.
