Sulfur is added to gun powder as a fuel; also adding sulfur the rate of ignition of the explosive is greater.
What is the element for hardening rubber?
Sulphur (Sulfur) is added to rubber in the process known as vulcanization.
What substance is added in the final stages to remove the sulfur from coal?
calcium oxide is injected into the final stage of the scubber, wich then reacts with the sulfur dioxide to form calcium sulfite.
Can eggy smell in well water have something to do with too much iron as well as with sulfur?

Is sulfur in steel?
Yes, steel consists of carbon and iron mainly and usually traces of sulfur. To avoid the deleterious effects of sulfur, manganese is usually added which forms MnS and improves the performance. To make this stainless, chromium at minimum 10% is then added.
What is formed by chemical reactions between sulfur and oxygen?
The main product is sulfur dioxide, which smells like rotten eggs and when added to water forms sulfurous acid. In the presence of a catalyst sulfur trioxide forms, which when added to water makes sulfuric acid.
How do you separate sand from sulfur?
Sulfur melts at a much lower temperature than sand. That might be useful. Also, there are solvents which will dissolve sulfur but not silicon dioxide. Finally, there's always the magnifying glass and tweezers method.

What element is not added to strengthen glass?
aliuminum
How do you make colored glass?
inks and dies are added to glass when it is in powdered form, then mixed in
What are the effects of sulfur and phosphorus in steel?
Sulfur decreases ductility and notch impact toughness especially in the transverse direction. Weldability decreases with increasing sulfur content. Sulfur is found primarily in the form of sulfide inclusions. Sulfur levels are normally controlled to low levels. The only exception is free-machining steels, where sulfur is added to improve machinability.
