When fuels burn what element present in the impurities in a fossil fuel may produce sulfur dioxide?
Sulfur is the element present in impurities in fossil fuels that can produce sulfur dioxide when the fuel burns.
What do fossil fuels like oil and coal contain in small amounts as an impurity?
Sulphur Impurities! Coal and oil contain sulfur impurities. When these fuels burn, the sulfur burns too which releases sulfur dioxide (SO 2) gas. Sulfur dioxide causes breathing problems for living creatures and contributes to acid rain.
What impurities in fuels can lead to a sort of rain?
Sulfur impurities in fuels can lead to acid rain when released into the atmosphere and react with water vapor to form sulfuric acid. This acid can then fall to the ground as rain, causing harm to the environment and infrastructure. Reducing sulfur content in fuels can help mitigate this issue.
What are gas oil and coal called?
Fossil fuels.
What is the order of burning fossil fuels?
Extraction: Fossil fuels are extracted from underground reservoirs through drilling or mining. Transportation: The fuels are transported to refineries or power plants via pipelines, trucks, or ships. Refining: At refineries, fossil fuels are processed to remove impurities and refine them into usable products like gasoline or diesel. Combustion: Finally, the refined fuels are burned in power plants, vehicles, or industrial processes to release energy, leading to the emission of greenhouse gases and pollutants.
When fuels burn what element present in the impurities in a fossil fuel may produce sulfur dioxide?
Sulfur is the element present in impurities in fossil fuels that can produce sulfur dioxide when the fuel burns.
How fossil fuels contain sulphur?
I'm trying to find out. hope this helps. O.
What do fossil fuels like oil and coal contain in small amounts as an impurity?
Sulphur Impurities! Coal and oil contain sulfur impurities. When these fuels burn, the sulfur burns too which releases sulfur dioxide (SO 2) gas. Sulfur dioxide causes breathing problems for living creatures and contributes to acid rain.
What substances responsible for acid precipitation are released into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels?
Oxides of nitrogen and sulphur.
How does burning contribute to acid rain?
It contributes by the burning of fossil fuels like coal that realeases sulphur
What causes acid rain to increase?
Further use of fossil fuels especially those with a high sulphur content.
What human activities relase sulphur dioxide carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen to the atmosphere?
Burning of fossil fuels
What gases and given out when fossil fuels are burnt?
Gasses produced from fossil fuels are many, such as what was known as coal gas (acetylene), CO2, CO, and many others that are formed with impurities found in fossil fuels as sulphur which can produces several toxic gasses within itself.
What is the substance that causes the acid rain?
Sulphur , in a form of sulphur dioxide or sulphur oxide , I think. Acid rain can be caused by either nitric oxide or sulfur dioxide in the air, which result from the burning of fossil fuels.
How does burning of fossil fuels affect sulphur?
there is an increase in the amount of nitrogen in the atmosphere- and there is a decrease in the amount of nitrogen in the earth.Answer this question…
The majority of the worlds electricity is supplied by burning 2 words?
fossil fuels
What is the problem with sulphur in fossil fuels?
Sulphur in fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) causes problems because when the fuel is burnt, sulphur dioxide is produced. This gas mixes with water vapour and rain in the atmosphere and falls as acid rain. Acid rain damages soils, crops, lakes, fish stocks and even buildings.
