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.

Why is sulfur dioxide more stable than sulfur monoxide?

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.

Why are low sulphur fuels good?

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.


How is carbon dioxide denser than oxygen?

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.
