In short no. It is however one of the main contributors to acid rain and sulphur dioxide dissolves in rain water to form sulphurous acid. The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen oxides (which also causes acid rain). Nitrogen oxide is a small percentage greenhouse gas (approx 6-7%) but is still significant because it is about 300 times more potent that carbon dioxide at 'trapping' solar radiation.
What else can I help you with?
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.
Is sulphur dioxide a basic?
yes
Is sulphur dioxide neutral?
Sulphur dioxide is a slightly acidic gas when dissolved in water, as it forms sulfurous acid. On the pH scale, which ranges from 0 to 14, sulphur dioxide solution would have a pH below 7, making it acidic.
How can you identify sulphur dioxide gas?
Sulphur dioxide gas can be identified by its pungent odor, which is often described as resembling the smell of burnt matches. In addition, it can cause irritation to the eyes and respiratory system when inhaled. Chemical tests like the lead acetate test can also be used to detect the presence of sulphur dioxide gas.
What happens when water combines with sulfur?
When water combines with sulfur, sulfur dioxide gas can be produced. This reaction is often slow unless a catalyst is present. Sulfur dioxide is a colorless gas with a sharp and pungent odor, and it can contribute to air pollution.
