Carbon dioxide combines with water to form Carbonic Acid, Similarly Sulfur dioxide form Sulfuric acid and Nitric oxide form Nitric acid. These all falls on earth in the form of acid rain.

When sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide combine with water in the atmosphere form what?

Sulfuric acid and nitric acid are obtained.


When sulphur oxide or nitric oxide is combined with moisture in the air then what is formed?

Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide combine with water to make acid rain. Nitric oxide is neutral but is rapidly oxidised to nitrogen dioxide.


Is sulfur dioxide part of carbon dioxide?

No, sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide are two different compounds. Sulfur dioxide consists of sulfur and oxygen atoms, while carbon dioxide consists of carbon and oxygen atoms. Both are greenhouse gases, but they come from different sources and have different environmental impacts.


Does sulfur react with dilute HNO3?

Yes, sulfur can react with dilute nitric acid (HNO3) to form sulfur dioxide gas, nitrogen dioxide gas, and water. This reaction is a redox reaction where sulfur is oxidized and nitric acid is reduced.


Is sulfur dioxide and nitrogen combine with water in the atmosphere physical or chemical change?

its a chemical change which forms suphurous acid (H2SO3) and nitric acid (HNO3)


What does sulfur and oxygen make when combined?

When sulfur and oxygen combine, they form sulfur dioxide (SO2).


What happens when sulfur reacts with nitric acid?

When sulfur reacts with nitric acid, sulfur dioxide gas is produced as the main product, along with other byproducts such as nitrogen dioxide and water. The reaction is generally exothermic and can be violent under certain conditions due to the possibility of generating additional heat and gas during the reaction.


How are sulfur dioxide carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide produced in combustion?

Sulfur and carbon are oxidized during the combustion process. Sulfur normally forms two compounds when it burns, Sulfur dioxide and to a lesser extent sulfur trioxide. This is normal. Carbon when it burns produces carbon dioxide, if there is not enough air provided to the combustion it will produce carbon monoxide, which is an incomplete reaction. Carbon monoxide is combustible gas and can be burned further into carbon dioxide, with the proper application of air. Nitrogen oxides, nitrous and nitric oxide, are a separate process. These chemical bonds require a heat input to form, and rob heat from a fuel. Typically they are not formed at temperatures under 1500F (816C). These compounds are formed from nitrogen in either the fuel or the air, a very hot flame is required to produce them.


What acids do sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides form?

Sulfuric and nitric acids.


Is burning of coal a cause of acid precipitation?

Yes, burning coal releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These all combine with rain to form acid rain. Carbon dioxide actually forms a very weak acid rain but the others are more damaging.


How is carbon sulfur dioxide made?

Carbon sulfur dioxide is not a naturally occurring compound. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is typically produced through the burning of sulfur-containing fossil fuels, such as coal and oil. When these fuels are combusted, sulfur reacts with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide.
