Oxygen is a smaller, highly electronegative element that forms a diatomic gas (O₂) due to stable pπ-pπ double bonds, while larger sulfur is less electronegative, has vacant d-orbitals, and forms octa-atomic rings (S₈) via single bonds, which are stronger and result in a solid state.
What else can I help you with?
Is sulphur dioxide a mixture a compound or an element?
Sulphur dioxide is a COMPOUND. It tis a combination of two oxygen atoms with a sulphur atom . Structurally it is shown as ' O=S=O'. (Very similar to carbon dioxide. Each oxygen atom is doubly covalently bonded to the sulphur atom. NB It is NOT a mixture, because mixtures have NO electronic bonding between atoms. NNB It is NOT an element. It is composed of TWO elements viz. sulphur and oxygen. The Periodic Table gives a list of all the elements. You will not find sulphur dioxide (SO2) listed,as it is a compound, but separately sulphur(S) and oxygen(O).
What substance does sulphur and oxygen form?
this forms hydrogen oxide (water)! This was my science hmwk and i hope that this has helped you!!
When a hydrocarbon fuel containing sulphur impurities is burned the sulphur reacts with what to produce sulphur dioxide?
When a hydrocarbon fuel containing sulfur impurities is burned, the **sulfur reacts with oxygen from the air to produce sulfur dioxide (SO₂)
What is the difference between atoms oxygen 16 and oxygen 17?
The main difference between oxygen-16 and oxygen-17 is their atomic mass. Oxygen-16 has 8 protons and 8 neutrons, while oxygen-17 has 8 protons and 9 neutrons. This difference in neutron number results in oxygen-17 being slightly heavier than oxygen-16.
What is the word equation for the reaction between sulfur and air?
The word equation for the reaction between sulfur and air is: sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide.
What is the difference between Ammonia and Sulphur dioxide gas?
Ammonia is NH3 (i.e. consists of nitrogen and hydrogen as its constituents) whereas Sulphur dioxide is SO2 i.e it has sulphur and oxygen as its constituents. The chemical and physical properties are also quite different.
How do you differentiate between sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide?
The difference between sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide is that there are 2 molecules of oxygen present in sulphur dioxide (SO2) and there are 3 molecules of oxygen are present in sulphur trioxide (SO3).
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
Sulphar burns with oxygen to form?
When you burn sulphur with oxygen you create sulphur dioxide or sulphur trioxide.
What does Sulfur plus Oxygen equal?
Sulphur + oxygen = Sulphur Oxide
Which Atom has the greatest mass between Lithium Sulphur oxygen and sodium?
lithium
What element contains sulphur trioxide?
Sulphur and Oxygen
What is the compound formed when sulphur reacts with oxygen?
Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is the compound formed when sulphur reacts with oxygen.

Who has highest value of electron affinity sulphur or oxygen?
Oxygen.
Which elements are in sulphur oxide?
Only sulphur and oxygen. You should be able to tell that from the name.
