What is the product when ethanol is oxidized?
Water and carbon dioxide.
Why is sulfur dioxide produced when fuels are burnt?
Fossil fuels contain sulfur in their compound, which can be oxidized to form sulfur dioxide while burning:Sufur + Oxygen --> Sulfur dioxide(or)S+O2--> SO2SO2 is a harmful and highly reactive gas, which can react with atmospheric water and may cause acid rain.
How does sulfur dioxide effect the ozone layer?
It doesn't. Sulfur dioxide is fully oxidized, unless water vapor is also present.
Can carbon dioxide be a liquid?
Yes, but only at greater than standard atmospheric pressure.
What substance can cause damage in the form of atmospheric gas dry particles and acid?
Sulfur Dioxide
What is the relationship between the rise of ocean temperatures and the rise in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide?
The relationship between the rise of ocean temperatures and the rise in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide is that when there is a rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide the warmer the temperature of the ocean is
What happens when carbon dioxide levels decrease in the atmosphere?
The atmospheric temperature will decrease
What is the relationship betwee carbon dioxide and atmospheric temperature?
CO2 is a greenhouse gas, meaning that as atmospheric levels of it rise, the temperature should gradually increase. This has, in fact, been observed.
Is carbon dioxide reduce or oxidized i photosynthesis?
Water is oxidized in the process of photosynthesis.
What is the product when ethanol is oxidized?
Water and carbon dioxide.

What do scientists think is causing the earth's atmospheric temperature rise?
Scientists think that human burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity (which releases carbon dioxide (CO2)), is causing the atmospheric temperature rise.
What Large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide are absorbed by what?
The ocean absorbs large amounts of atmospheric carbon dioxide, and is acidified thereby.
Why is sulfur dioxide produced when fuels are burnt?
Fossil fuels contain sulfur in their compound, which can be oxidized to form sulfur dioxide while burning:Sufur + Oxygen --> Sulfur dioxide(or)S+O2--> SO2SO2 is a harmful and highly reactive gas, which can react with atmospheric water and may cause acid rain.
Which reactant of photosynthesis is reduced?
In photosynthesis, the carbon dioxide molecules are being reduced, while the water molecules are being oxidized In photosynthesis, the carbon dioxide molecules are being reduced, while the water molecules are being oxidized
What is an increase in the atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide is the biggest contributor?
An increase in the atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide is the biggest contributor to global warming.
