Is sulfur dioxide the same as sulfite?

No, sulfur dioxide is a gas with the formula SO2 Sulfite is an ion with the formula (SO32-). It occurs along side some sort of positive ion to balance its negative charge. These compounds, called sulfites, can form when sulfur dioxide, an acidic oxide, reacts with basic oxides. Most metal oxides are basic.


Why is sulfur dioxide polar and carbon dioxide non-polar when both have polar covalent bond?

Sulfur dioxide O - S - 0 has two valence pairs on one side of the sulfur, so the oxygens are bent downwards, making it a polar molecule (the bends make it asymmetric) Meanwhile, Carbon dioxide, O=C=O has only double bonds around the central atom, no unbonded pairs, so it is a linear, and therefore non-polar molecule. (It is symmetric)


Why is sulfur dioxide polar and carbon dioxide non polar when both have polar covalent bond?

The fact that they are joined by polar covalent bonds is irrelevant as intermolecular bonds do not usually determine the polarity of intramolecular bonds. Sulphur dioxide is angular in shape, presumably due to the extra electron shell as sulphur and oxygen are in the same group. This means one side of the molecule is more negative than the other and vise versa. This is what makes it a polar molecule. CO2 is linear and so there is no definitive negative side


What is a non metal oxide?

A non metal oxide is a compound of a non metal with oxygen. metals are in the center or left hand side of the periodic table of chemical elements. non metals are to the right hand side and are separated from the metals along the aluminum/ Gallium/Germanium/antimony/polonium line. A non metal oxide is a non metallic element reacted with oxygen e.g. Water (H2O), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide


Is sulfur edible?

Sulfur is used in pharmaceutical compounding. In excess it can be irritating and harmful. But I accidentally found out that it greatly relieved a persistent cough I had due to congestive heart failure. So now I take a pinch a day for relief and have no negative side effects from it. It is mild enough to take orally at that dosage. Use good sense. Sulfur can be used in excess. Start out gradually to see how you react to it.

How do you balance an equation for sulfur plus oxygen gas yields sulfur dioxide?

To balance the equation for sulfur plus oxygen gas yielding sulfur dioxide, you need to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. The balanced equation is: S + O₂ → SO₂. This equation is already balanced, with one sulfur atom and two oxygen atoms on each side.
