Is so2 a strong base?

No, SO2 (sulfur dioxide) is not a base. It is an acidic gas that can react with water to form sulfurous acid (H2SO3), making it an acidifying compound.

Why is so2 a powerful reducing agent in alkaline medium than in acidic medim?

SO2 acts as a reducing agent because of the liberation of nescent hydrogen in the presence of moisture;SO2 + 2H2O ---------- H2SO4 +2HAlkali neutralises the acid (H2SO4) and shifts the equilibrium in the forward direction producing more nascent hydrogen.however,in acidic medium,the equilibrium is suppressed resulting in a lesser amount of nascant hydrogen.consequently,SO2 is better reducing agent in alkaline medium than in the acidic medium.....if you are satisfy with my answer than...wel done me...hahahah....otherwise abuse me...i will be satisfy with your abusingPosted by Sachin Bagga(student), 1 minute ago


Is a solution of SO2 acidic?

Yes, a solution of SO2 can be acidic because it reacts with water to form sulfuric acid (H2SO4). SO2 dissolves in water to produce sulfurous acid (H2SO3), which can further react to form sulfuric acid, increasing the acidity of the solution.
