The reaction is usually considered an oxidation-reduction reaction, and that's what we see in combustion, or fire. In a fire, fuel is combusted, and the fuel is oxidized in the process.

When something combines with oxygen is it a physical or chemical property of sulfur?

When sulfur combines with oxygen, it undergoes a chemical reaction to form sulfur dioxide. This is a chemical property of sulfur because it involves a change in the chemical composition of the substance.


How are temperature and the Arrhenius theory related?

The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is dependent on temperature.


Does the change of temperature will slow or faster the chemical reaction?

No, an increase in temperature will speed up the reaction. This is because the heat energy is transferred into kinetic energy (movement energy) in the reactors and this increases their speed and so increases the rate at which they collide with each other, increasing the rate of the chemical reaction.


Do catalysts affect temperature?

A catalyst affects the speed of a chemical reaction. If the chemical reaction gives off heat, the reaction may affect the temperature, but the catalyst by itself doesn't affect the temperature.
