Sulfur dioxide is removed by contact with water as it is soluble and forms sulfurous acid. The removal can be enhances by the addition of alkalis not acids. The problem with adding alkalis to the water is that the reaction between the alkali and the acid can cause a precipitated salt which becomes a waste disposal issue.
What else can I help you with?
What acids do nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide form?
Sulfur dioxide produces Sulfurous acid when dissolved in water.SO2 + H2O ----> H2SO3Nitrogen dioxide produces Nitrous acid and Nitric acid when dissolved in water.2 NO2 + H2O ----> HNO2 + HNO3
How is sulfur dioxide formed in a combustion reaction?
Sulfur dioxide is present in many fuels either as H2S, sulfur or sulphidic organic compounds (R-SH) like mercaptans or disulfides. In combustion, these sulfurs are combined with oxygen to produce SO2 and some SO3. Both SO2 and SO3 can combine in further atmospheric reactions to produce sulfurous or sulfuric acids.
What effect does sulfur dioxide have on buildings?
Sulfur dioxide can react with moisture in the air to form sulfuric acid, which can corrode building materials such as metal, stone, and concrete. This can lead to degradation of building structures and surfaces, causing potential structural damage and aesthetic deterioration. Regulatory measures are in place in many regions to control sulfur dioxide emissions to mitigate these effects.
Is sulfur dioxide an ionic or a compound?
It is an Ionic compound (as far as i guess)
Name of acid formed when sulfur oxides mixes with rainwater?
I think it is Nitrogen Oxide. The nitrous oxide condenses with the rain to give the nitric acid, sulfur dioxide condenses with the rain to give sulfuric acid, carbon dioxide combines with the rain to give carbonic acid . These three acids constitute the acid rain.
What acids do sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides form?
Sulfuric and nitric acids.
What acids are released by acid rain?
sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides
What acids do nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide form?
Sulfur dioxide produces Sulfurous acid when dissolved in water.SO2 + H2O ----> H2SO3Nitrogen dioxide produces Nitrous acid and Nitric acid when dissolved in water.2 NO2 + H2O ----> HNO2 + HNO3

Which acids do sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide form?
Type your answer here i dont know y u asking me?
Most important agent of chemical weathering is?
Acids within rain e.g. Sulfuric acid which is formed from sulfur dioxide and Nitric acid. These acids then break down material such as structures and rocks.
What elements contain sulfur?
Sulfur is commonly found in minerals such as pyrite, galena, sphalerite, and gypsum. It is also present in organic compounds like proteins, amino acids, and vitamins such as biotin and thiamine. Additionally, sulfur can be found in gases like hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide.
One of the acids in acid rain forms when water combines with?
Acid rain contain traces of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. These gases when dissolved in water - as in cloud water droplets - form sulfuric acid and nitric acid [and probably also sulfurous and nitrous acids].
What forms when carbon dioxide sulfur dioxide or nitric oxide combine with water in the air?
When carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, or nitric oxide combine with water in the air, they form carbonic acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid, respectively. These acids can contribute to acid rain and can have damaging effects on the environment.
Is Acid rain created when water vapor in the atmosphere absorbs carbon dioxide?
Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.
How can a human produce sulfur dioxide?
Physiologically, nearly all the sulfur in our diet comes from protein, specifically the amino acids cysteine and methionine, and it is critical in forming the proteins that our bodies need. As protein metabolism actively builds and breaks down proteins and amino acids, excess sulfur in tissues or the gut will be oxidized to SO2 and eliminated in urine or as gas. SO2 has a distinctive "rotten egg" smell. Externally, humans create SO2 by simply burning sulfur, a common contaminant in fossil fuels, particularly coal. S + O2 --> SO2
