Is sulfur dioxide removed from waste gases by treatment with acids?
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 may be indicated by changes in the ratio of sulfur dioxide to carbon dioxide in volcanic gases?
Changes in magma
What are sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides?
They are air polluting gases and main causes of acid rain
What gases are produced by fossil fuel combustion and lead to global warming?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Nitrogen Oxides (NO)
Does sulfur dioxide react with air?
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) can react with the oxygen in the air to produce sulfur teioxide (SO3). Either of these gases can react with water in the air to produce an acid, goes to SO2 sulfurous acid, SO3 goes to sulfuric acid.
