The specific gravity of Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) compared to air is 2.264. This means that sulfur dioxide weighs 2.264 times as much as air at the same conditions of pressure, temperature and gravitational attraction.
Yes, sulfur is less dense than water. so it floats at the top if placed in water.. therefore it rises. -y&r from kuwait :D
12.358% of Sulphur dioxide in the atmosphere.78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.039% carbon dioxide, and other gases with very small percentage.
Yes. I do not like using links from companies related to the biofuels industry, but in this case, I could not find any other information on the internet about how much sulfur dioxide is released from burning biofuels. It does get complicated, as there are all types of biofuels. The biofuels are reported as contributing much less air pollutants than diesel or gasoline, but they are not carbon (or sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide) neutral or zero emissions.
Sulfur sinks in water because it is denser than water.
No, hydrogen is actually less dense than air. This means that hydrogen gas will tend to rise and disperse upwards in the atmosphere when released, instead of sinking down like denser gases such as carbon dioxide.
Sulfur dioxide is a colorless gas that is denser than air and has a sharp, pungent odor.
Plants are less susceptible to ozone and sulfur dioxide. It is because they have a filtering mechanism.
Carbon Dioxide is less denser than air.

Sulfur dioxide is more stable than sulfur monoxide because it has a full octet of electrons in its outer shell, which gives it greater stability. Sulfur monoxide is less stable because it has an unpaired electron, making it more reactive and less energetically favorable.
Yes, carbon dioxide (CO2) is denser than air.

Of course less denser, because a gas is always less denser than liquid.
A gas, sulfur dioxide, is released from fuels containing sulfur. Both coal and oil may contain some sulfur. Sulfur dioxide can cause breathing problems. Sulfur dioxide can combine with water vapor to create acid rain, destroying vegetation in lakes and forests. I do not agree that burning low sulfur fuels is good, just less harmful than high sulfur fuels. See related links.
Carbon dioxide is denser than oxygen because it has a larger molecular weight per molecule. Each molecule of carbon dioxide (CO2) consists of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, making it heavier than each molecule of oxygen (O2), which consists of only two oxygen atoms. This difference in molecular weight causes carbon dioxide to be denser than oxygen.
Volcanoes produce more sulfur dioxide than any other cause. Some sulfur dioxide is also release from the burning of sulfur-rich fossil fuels.
For example, comparing olive oil with ethanol the alcohol is less denser.
