When sulfur burns in air does it make sulfur oxide or sulfur dioxide?
It makes Sulphur Dioxide. and little Sulphur Trioxide.
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.
Which gas in air does sulfur react with?
oxygen
Substance produced when sulfur burns in air?
The product of this reaction is the sulphur dioxide - SO2.
Can sulfur burn?
Sulphur burns in air (oxygen ) to give sulphur dioxide. S + O2 ---> SO2
Is the burned sulfur mixed with distilled water acid or base?
Burning sulfur in air sulfur dioxide is formed; this gas dissolved in water form an acidic solution.
What is the poisonous gas formed when methane burns in a limited supply of air?
carbon monoxide i think - CO
When sulfur burns in air does it make sulfur oxide or sulfur dioxide?
It makes Sulphur Dioxide. and little Sulphur Trioxide.
How carbon is converted into sulfur dioxide?
Carbon cannot be converted into sulfur dioxide.Carbon burns in air to form carbon dioxide.Sulfur burns in air to form sulfur dioxide.A possible source of confusion is that coal, which is mostly carbon, can release sulfur dioxide when burned because it often contains impurities of sulfur.
What are the products formed when sulfur is burnt in the air?
When sulfur is burnt in air, sulfur dioxide and some sulfur trioxide is formed. These can react with the traces of moisture in the air and so small amounts of sulfurous and sulfuric acid are also formed (acid rain components) S+O2 -----> SO2 2S + 3O2 ------> 2SO3

What is the reaction taking place as the hydrogen burns?
Water is formed when hydrogen gas burns (reacts) with oxygen (from air) 2 H2(g) + O2(g) --> 2H2O(l)
Which gas in air does sulfur react with?
oxygen
Hydrogen sulphide gas burns in air to give water and sulfur dioxide balanced equation?
2h2s + 3o2 ----> 2so2 + 2h2o
What is the product formed when Oxygen burns in air?
Oxygen can not burn in air.
Substance produced when sulfur burns in air?
The product of this reaction is the sulphur dioxide - SO2.
What is the chemical that is formed when hydrogen burns in air?
Water.
