What is the oxidation of the of s in the compound so2?
Sulphar has +4 oxidation state.Oxygen has -2 oxidation state.
What are oxidation-reaction reactions do?
In an oxidation reaction there is addition of oxygen molecules or removal of hydrogen molecules from a compound and loss of electrons from an atom / ion . example - S + O2 = SO2
Why is vanadium pentoxide preferred to platinized asbestos as a catalyst during catalytic oxidation of SO2?
Asbestos is avoided because his carcinogenic properties.
How do you calculate SO2 to SO3 conversion efficiency?
(Inlet SO2-Exit SO2)X100 ----------------------------- Inlet-(1.5xinletXExit)/100
Is 2FeSO4 Fe2O3 plus SO2 plus SO3 a redox reaction?
No, there is no change in any oxidation states.
What is the oxidation of the of s in the compound so2?
Sulphar has +4 oxidation state.Oxygen has -2 oxidation state.
What is the oxidation number of SO2?
Oxidation state of O is -2.Oxidation state of S is +4.
What is the oxidation number for in the ion SO2-3?
+6, because the oxidation number of oxygen is -2x3=-6
What is the oxidation numbers for SO2?
-2 for each O +4 for S
What is the oxidation numbers of sulfur?
The oxidation number is 0 in elemental form. It can have other oxidation numbers as -2, +4 and +6 in its compounds such as H2S, SO2 and SO3 respectively.-2, 0, 2, 4 and 6 oxidation states
What is the oxidation of sulfur?
Sulfur can have a wide range of oxidation in its compounds -2 in H2S 0 in elementary sulfur (S8) +4 in SO2 +6 in SO3
Determine the oxidation number for the indicated element in S in SO2?
-2 for each O +4 for S
What are oxidation-reaction reactions do?
In an oxidation reaction there is addition of oxygen molecules or removal of hydrogen molecules from a compound and loss of electrons from an atom / ion . example - S + O2 = SO2
What is the valency of sulphur in SO3?
Things are complicated if we use the term valency. It is better to use the term Oxidation state or Oxidation Number. In SO2, the oxidation state of sulphur is +4 and In SO3, the oxidation state of sulphur is +6.
What is the oxidation state of sulfur in SO2 if oxygen is in the -2?
Since the total molecule must have zero net oxidation state and there are two oxygen atoms but only one sulfur atom, the sulfur must have oxidation state +4.
Why is vanadium pentoxide preferred to platinized asbestos as a catalyst during catalytic oxidation of SO2?
Asbestos is avoided because his carcinogenic properties.
Balance the equation fes2 o2 --- fe2o3 so2 and name the reaction?
Pyrite (fools gold) reacts with Oxygen to make Hematite (Fe2O3) and Sulpher dioxide (SO2) The reaction is oxidation of pyrite. 2FeS2 + 3.5O2 - - Fe2O3 + 2SO2
