When an oxide reacts with sulfur dioxide, it can form a sulfate. The sulfur dioxide can oxidize the metal in the oxide, resulting in the formation of a metal sulfate compound. This reaction is often used in industrial processes to remove sulfur dioxide emissions from flue gases.

Is sulphur dioxide a basic oxide?

No, sulphur dioxide is not a basic oxide - it is an acidic oxide. It reacts with water to form sulfurous acid, creating an acidic solution.


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.


Is sulphur dioxide an acid base or neutral?

Sulphur dioxide is an acidic compound. When dissolved in water, sulphur dioxide produces sulphurous acid, which gives it acidic properties.


What is molecular formula for Sulfur Oxide?

SOx is the formula for sulphur oxide's. A common example is sulphur dioxide S02.


What will you produce if you burn sulphur in the air?

You will get SO2 or sulphur dioxide, an acidic oxide


What do you get if you heat copper sulphate?

i think copper oxide + sulphur dioxide


What experiment shows that sulphur forms an acidic oxide?

S+O2 gives rise to SO2. This is dissolved in water and tested with litmus paper.Red litmus turns blue which means it is acidic


What happens when sulfur burns in oxygen?

When sulfur burns in oxygen, it forms sulfur dioxide gas (SO2). The chemical equation for the reaction is: 2S + 3O2 -> 2SO2. This process is exothermic and releases a significant amount of heat and light.


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 sulphur dioxide a molecule?

A Molecule consists of one or more atoms so yes, sulphur di oxide is a molecule.


What is the word equation for sulfur plus oxygen?

"sulphur+oxygen->sulphur oxide."Se + O2 under pressure renders SeO2 (selenium dioxide). "Comment on the fact that the analagous reaction between sulphur and oxygen, although extremely slow, gives a product with a different stoichiometry". Part 1A Inorganic Chemistry Paper, University of Oxford, 2008.So the paper suggeststhat sulphur dioxide is not the product of direct combination of sulphur and oxygen. Why is this? Is it contaminated with some SO3?I think it's actually sulphur dioxide rather than sulphur oxide as someone else suggested. If you look at the reaction of carbon and oxygen, it doesn't produce carbon oxide, but carbon dioxide. So therefore I think if:Carbon + oxygen --> carbon dioxideThen:Sulphur + oxygen --> Sulphur dioxide


Is sulfur dioxide acidic?

This is because sulphur dioxide is an acidic oxide. Acidic oxides are formed from non-metals.
