Yes, SO2 (sulfur dioxide) can dissolve in water to form sulfurous acid (H2SO3). This process involves the dissolution of SO2 gas molecules into water molecules, leading to the formation of hydrated sulfurous acid. The dissolution of SO2 in water is an important step in atmospheric chemistry, as it contributes to the formation of acid rain.
What else can I help you with?
What does so2 dissolve in?
It dissolve in polar solvents.It dissolve well in water.
IS SO2 soluble or insoluble in water?
SO2 dissolve well in water.The product formed is H2SO3.
Is sio2 more acidic than so2?
When dissolving CO2 in water it forms a weak acid: H2CO3. SiO2 will not dissolve in water, so it is not acidic (nor base)
What does a sulphur dioxide compound look like?
Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is a colorless gas at room temperature with a pungent odor. It is commonly found in the atmosphere due to combustion processes involving sulfur-containing fuels like coal and oil. SO2 can also dissolve in water to form sulfurous acid.
Is so2 a base?
No, when bubbled through water it produces sulfurous acid H2SO3.
What does so2 dissolve in?
It dissolve in polar solvents.It dissolve well in water.
IS SO2 soluble or insoluble in water?
SO2 dissolve well in water.The product formed is H2SO3.
If both sulfur dioxide and carbon dioxide dissolve in water-what color would the solution be?
SO2 is less soluble in water... but solution of SO2 and CO2 will be colourless...
Would an acid or an alkali be formed if an oxide were dissolved in water?
When you dissolve an Oxide (e.g. CO2 or SO2) in water you normally make an acid.
Is sio2 more acidic than so2?
When dissolving CO2 in water it forms a weak acid: H2CO3. SiO2 will not dissolve in water, so it is not acidic (nor base)
What does a sulphur dioxide compound look like?
Sulphur dioxide (SO2) is a colorless gas at room temperature with a pungent odor. It is commonly found in the atmosphere due to combustion processes involving sulfur-containing fuels like coal and oil. SO2 can also dissolve in water to form sulfurous acid.
Why you experience acid rain?
Because of emission of acidic gases like SO2,NO2,SO3.They dissolve in rain water and form acids like H2SO4,H2SO3,HNO3,HNO2.
What is the chemical formula for sulfur dioxide water?
The chemical formula for sulfur dioxide is SO2, and for water it is H2O.
How does an acid form?
An acid form with most non-metals which dissolve in water for acids. Examples are;1. sulphur dioxide- SO2+ H20= H2SO3 2. Nitrogen dioxide- NO2+ H2O= HNO3
Is so2 a base?
No, when bubbled through water it produces sulfurous acid H2SO3.
Which compounds does not dissolve in water and cause acid rain?
Compounds such as sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) can cause acid rain. These compounds react with water in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then fall back to Earth in the form of acid rain.
A substance that does not dissolve in a solvent is said to be what in that solvent?
- Sand does not dissolve in water- Plastic does not dissolve in water- metals do not dissolve in water
