Most sulfur oxides are produced by burning?
By burning coal.
How does sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide get in the air?
high temperature combustion produces nitrous dioxide gas A2: There is no "nitrous dioxide" gas--only Nitric Oxide (NO2) and Nitrous Oxide (N2O; laughing gas). NO2 is produced by burning at high temperatures, say a car engine running lean; and also produced naturally by lightning. Sulfur dioxide can be produced by volcanoes or burning hi-sulfur fuels, like some grades of diesel.
Does sulfur burn?
Yes, eg. in matches, burning to form sulfur dioxide, the nose prickeling gas.
Sulfur dioxide forms from the burning of what?
Burning sulfur in oxygen produces sulfur dioxide.
Produced when gases released by burning oil and coal mix with water in the air?
The coal and oil contain sulfur which forms sulfur dioxide on burning, this can react with water vapour in the atmosphere and produce sulfuric acid, the so-called acid rain
What polluting gas produced from burning hydrocarbon fuels is not a problem with nuclear energy?
sulfur
Most sulfur oxides are produced by burning?

What human activity releases large amounts of sulfur dioxide into the environment?
Sulfur dioxide is produced by the burning of coal to produce electricity. Nearly 2/3 of the sulfur dioxide produced is through the burning of fossil fuels.
What gas is produced by fires?
Mostly carbon dioxide. If the supply of oxygen is restricted, carbon monoxide as well. Other things depend on what is in the burning substance, sulfur will give sulfur dioxide for example, and there may be nitrogen oxides.
What is the weight of burned sulfur?
After burning sulfur become another compound - sulfur dioxide (SO2), a gas.
Is an acidic gas given off when you burn sulfur?
Yes, burning sulfur releases sulfur dioxide or SO2.
Why is the sulfur dioxide produced from burning fuels a problem?
sulfur dioxide is a very powerful and common greenhouse gas which traps the suns UV rays and leads to global warming.
what is the name of the gas which is evolved when sulphur is burned?
Burning sulfur produces sulfur dioxide (SO2).
When oxygen is available sulfur dioxide is produced from the burning of sulfur what word equations best represents this reaction?
so2
Why does burning hydrocarbons produce sulphur dioxide?
Sulfur dioxide is produced only if the hydrocarbons are contaminated with sulfur compounds.
What gas goes into the atmosphere when you burn coal oil or gas?
The gas that is released when burning coal, oil, or gas is called carbon monoxide or sulfur. Sulfur is released with the burning of coal and carbon monoxide is what the exhaust of cars is made up of because of the burning of petroleum.
