What is a natural source of sulfur dioxide carbon dioxide and ash in the atmosphere?

Volcanic eruptions are a natural source of sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and ash in the atmosphere. During an eruption, gases such as sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide are released from the magma, along with ash which is a mixture of fine rock particles and gases.


Is carbon dioxide the same thing has a molecule?

Yes!!


What gas has approximately the same density as carbon dioxide gas at standard temperature pressure?

Sulfur hexafluoride gas has an approximate density similar to that of carbon dioxide gas at standard temperature and pressure.


What happens when carbon dioxide is breathed in by penguins?

Same thing that happens to you. Not much.


1 thing the same about carbon dioxide and hydrogen?

Both are colorless gases.


Is sulfur hexachloride and sulfur dioxide the same thing?

No, they are two separate gases, with completely different properties. Sulfer Dioxide is found in things like car exhaust and contributes to things like acid rain. It's also used as a preservative for food. Its Chemical formula is SO2 Sulfur Hexachloride is another compound entirely. It is very hard to make and has few practical uses, outside of the chemists lab that is. Its Chemical Formula is SCl6


What is the chemical formula for mono sulfur dioxide?

The chemical formula of sulfur dioxide is SO2 (not mono and di in the same name !).


Why 22.4 L of CO2 is lighter than 22.4 L of SO2?

The molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO2) is 44.01 g/mol, while the molar mass of sulfur dioxide (SO2) is 64.06 g/mol. Since both gases occupy the same volume and have different molar masses, the sulfur dioxide molecules are heavier than the carbon dioxide molecules, resulting in the 22.4 liters of SO2 being heavier than the 22.4 liters of CO2.


What gas is given off when coal burns?

Carbon dioxide is the gas given off. Oil also gives off the same gas when burned.


Is Sulphur dioxide and sulfur oxide the same?

Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a specific compound composed of one sulfur atom and two oxygen atoms. Sulfur oxide is a more general term that can refer to a variety of compounds containing sulfur and oxygen, including sulfur dioxide.


Why is sulfur dioxide not called SO onstead of SO2 as both have same valency of 2?

Good question. Sulfur dioxide means there is 1 sulfur atom and 2 oxygen atoms, and is not giving any information about the valence or oxidation state. Think of this.... Carbon monoxide = CO and Carbon dioxide = CO2


Is sulphur dioxide the same as sulphur?

No, sulfur is an element and sulfur dioxide is a gaseous compound. Sulfur dioxide is the combustion product of sulfur in an oxygen atmosphere (S+O2 --> SO2) Where sulfur is an element, sulfur dioxide is a compound and where sulfur is an insoluble yellow solid, sulfur dioxide is a colorless soluble gas.
