Volcanoes emit much hydrogen sulfide gas H2S which reacts with the oxygen in the air to form water and sulfur dioxide SO2 Every 81 tons of H2S reacts with 114 tons of oxygen and forms 43 tons of w?

Earths first atmosphere contained little to no?
Oxygen. Earth's early(first) atmosphere is believed to contain hydrogen cyanide, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and water. but still it only had little to no oxygen.
What is the equation for reacting mercury sulfide with oxygen?
mercury sulfide + oxygen -> Mercury Oxide + Sulfur dioxide Hg2S (l) + 4O2 (g) 2HgO (s) + SO2 (g)
How is Hydrogen Sulfide made?
when 1 sulpher atom and 2 oxygen atoms are merged to make SO2, which is sulpher dioxide, however you can spell sulpher as sulfur, sulfur is more common.
What gas produced by plants and algae was missing from earths early atmosphere?
Oxygen gas was thought to be missing. Other compounds such as nitrogen and its oxides, carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, hydrogen, and hydrogen sulfide were believed to be released by volcanos-- they were there.Source: AP Biology textbook, ed.8, Pearson
What is the chemical formula for bioethanol?
ØHarvest the ENERGY from chemical bonds in compounds such as hydrogen sulfur (H2S) and iron mineralsHydrogen Sulfide ChemosynthesisHydrogen sulfide (H2S=energy)+ oxygen + carbon dioxide = glucose + sulfur + water
What is the chemical equsion for Hydrogen sulfide plus oxygen equals water plus sulfur dioxide?
hydrogen sulfide + oxygen = water + sulfuer dioxide
Chemical equation for hydrogen sulfide reacting with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide and water?
H2s + o2 = so2 + h2o
Can you reverse the change of sulphur burning to create sulphur oxide?
Sulphur burns in an oxygen atmosphere to produce sulfur dioxide. When this sag is exposed to hydrogen sulfide it creates pure sulfur. This is the Claus process, the heart of suphur production from sour (hydrogen sulfide rich) gas. In that process the sulphur dioxide comes from the combustion of a portion of the hydrogen sulfide. The reactions are: 2 H2S + 3 O2 → 2 SO2 + 2 H2O (for Hydrogen Sulfide combustion) S + O2 → SO2 (for Sulphur combustion) Whatever the source of the Sulphur Dioxide the reaction with Hydrogen Sulfide is: 2 H2S + SO2 → 3 S + 2 H2O
Earths first atmosphere contained little to no?
Oxygen. Earth's early(first) atmosphere is believed to contain hydrogen cyanide, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and water. but still it only had little to no oxygen.
What process best describes chemosynthesis?
1. First, vents disperse hydrothermal fluids containing hydrogen sulfide into the deep ocean water. Next, microbes living around the vents consume this hydrogen sulfide, as well as carbon dioxide and oxygen. The microbes then get energy by breaking down the hydrogen sulfide. This energy is used to convert the carbon dioxide and oxygen into sugars. Finally, the microbes release sulfur and water.
Which gases are responsible for the fire of combusted farts?
There are several gases responsible for the fire of combusted farts and usually it is a mixture of one of these gases: carbon dioxide, hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, methane, nitrogen and oxygen.
Do oxygen and hydrogen and carbon dioxide weigh the same?
No, hydrogen, oxygen and carbon dioxide have very different weights.
Are there hydrogen molecules in dioxide?
dioxide is di(two)oxide(oxygen). no hydrogen.
Hydrogen sulfide plus oxygen?
2h2s + 3o2 = 2h2o + 2so2
Do all archaea require oxygen to survive?
Archaea do not need sunlight or oxygen, instead they absorb carbon dioxide(CO2), nitrogen (N2), or hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and give off methane gas.Source: Education Bhaskar
What are the three most important dissolved gases in seawater?
1. Nitrogen. (It makes up 78% of the atmosphere) 2. Oxygen (21%) 3. Argon (1%) The local atmosphere may contain various amounts of water vapor by mass.
Are farts inert gases?
No. The inert gasses are not a part of any biological processes becuase they are inert. The gasses released are carbon dioxide, methane, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. The odor is due to the presence of skatole, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide.
