Agreed!!!!

NB

'Whiskey' as spelled is any whiskey from any part of the world , EXCEPT Scotland.

In Scotland is spelled 'WHISKY' ( No 'e') It Gaelic name is 'Uisghe Beatha' , which translates as 'Water of life' THe Scots are very particular about no 'e' in the name.

I shall leave with ' Slainte Mhath', which translates from Gaelic as 'Good health'.

Why is sulphur dioxide produced in petrol engines?

Sulphur dioxide is produced in petrol engines due to the combustion of sulphur-containing compounds present in the fuel. When these compounds are burned, they react with oxygen to form sulphur dioxide as a byproduct, which is then emitted through the exhaust. Reducing the sulphur content in petrol can help minimize the production of sulphur dioxide emissions.


What element does coal contain to make sulphur dioxide when it burns?

Coal contains sulfur, which combines with oxygen during combustion to form sulfur dioxide (SO2). Burning coal releases this harmful gas, contributing to air pollution and acid rain.


How can sulphur dioxide be removed from flue gas by wet scrubbing?

Sulphur dioxide can be removed from flue gas by wet scrubbing using a scrubbing solution such as a slurry of limestone in water. The sulphur dioxide reacts with the alkaline solution to form calcium sulfite or sulfate, which can then be separated from the gas stream. The scrubbed gas is then released into the atmosphere with reduced sulphur dioxide levels.


When a hydrocarbon fuel containing sulphur impurities is burned the sulphur reacts with what to produce sulphur dioxide?

When a hydrocarbon fuel containing sulfur impurities is burned, the **sulfur reacts with oxygen from the air to produce sulfur dioxide (SO₂)


Is sulphur dioxide a mixture a compound or an element?

Sulphur dioxide is a COMPOUND. It tis a combination of two oxygen atoms with a sulphur atom . Structurally it is shown as ' O=S=O'. (Very similar to carbon dioxide. Each oxygen atom is doubly covalently bonded to the sulphur atom. NB It is NOT a mixture, because mixtures have NO electronic bonding between atoms. NNB It is NOT an element. It is composed of TWO elements viz. sulphur and oxygen. The Periodic Table gives a list of all the elements. You will not find sulphur dioxide (SO2) listed,as it is a compound, but separately sulphur(S) and oxygen(O).

Is sulfur dioxide given off by burning petroleum?

Some petroleum fuels such as Bunker C or heavy diesel contain significant amounts of sulphidic compounds and some natural fuel gases are known as sour when they contain hydrogen sulfide. In both of these cases when the fuels are burned they will produce sulphur dioxide. In automotive diesel there is a small amount of sulphur. This, because of the combustion conditions, is not released as sulpur dioxide, but as solid sulfate particulate. Fuels which contain no sulphur (refined and treaterd by sulphur removal) do not give off sulphur dioxide.


What are three substances that contain sulphur?

Sulphuric acid (H2SO4), Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) and Sulphur dioxide (SO2). Also Cysteine, an amino acid.


How are a sulfur molecule and a sulphur dioxide molecule similar?

Both contain sulphur atoms. Elemntal sulfur is most commonly found as S8, a ring molecule, wheras sulfur dioxide, SO2, is a gas.


Is sulphur dioxide a hydrocarbonprotienvitamen mineral or lipid?

It is a mineral. Sulphur dioxide certainly is not a lipid.


Is sulfur trioxide a primary or secondary pollutant?

Coal and oli contain sulphur. When either one burns, it produces sulphur dioxide. The sulphur dioxide gradually turns into sulphur trioxide which mixes with rain and becomes acid rain. It is easy to remove the sulphur in refineries or power plants.


Which energy sources produce carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide?

Burning coal (a fossil fuel) releases carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide.
