What is the gas that bubbles through limewater?
They are Carbon-dioxide and Sulphur Dioxide
What causes the gases in acid rain to be produced and released into the atmosphere?
Some gases present in acid rain* Sulphur dioxide, SO2 * Nitrogen oxide, NO * Nitrogen dioxide, NO2 * Carbon dioxide, CO2 (in excess amounts)The abovementioned gases are acidic in the sense that when they dissolve in water, they will react to form acids. For example, sulphur dioxide when released into the atmosphere will eventually be oxidised such that it forms sulphuric acid, H2SO4.The gases originate from both man-made and natural sources. Man-made sources * Vehicles. The combustion of fuel produces carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and oxides of nitrogen (NO / NO2). * Coal factories. Coal contains carbon, which when combusted gives rise to carbon dioxide. There are also impurities like sulphur, which are oxidised to form sulphur dioxide during the burning process.Natural sources* Volcano eruptions. Large volumes of gases such as sulphur dioxide are expelled into the air when this takes place.Note: These are but a few (very few, actually) examples.
Does helium produce carbon dioxide?
No. helium does not produce carbon dioxide
Does algae produce carbon dioxide?
Algae are plants and produce oxygen from carbon dioxide when exposed to sunlight by photosynthesis. At night they produce carbon dioxide though cellular respiration.
The most dominant component of volcanic gases is?
sulphur dioxide,hydrogen sulphide,carbon dioxide
Why does burning petrol in a car engine produce carbon dioxide as well as carbon monoxide?
because the petrol reacts with the air forming sulphur dioxide. Then the sulphur dioxide goes through the catalytic converter and is then change into a less harmful gas, carbon diioxide and carbon monoxide.
What is the gas that bubbles through limewater?
They are Carbon-dioxide and Sulphur Dioxide
What are two sources of the gases that produce acid precipitation?
NO2, for Nitric acid formation and SO2, for Sulfuric acid formation in atmosphere .
What is the word equation for sulfur plus oxygen?
"sulphur+oxygen->sulphur oxide."Se + O2 under pressure renders SeO2 (selenium dioxide). "Comment on the fact that the analagous reaction between sulphur and oxygen, although extremely slow, gives a product with a different stoichiometry". Part 1A Inorganic Chemistry Paper, University of Oxford, 2008.So the paper suggeststhat sulphur dioxide is not the product of direct combination of sulphur and oxygen. Why is this? Is it contaminated with some SO3?I think it's actually sulphur dioxide rather than sulphur oxide as someone else suggested. If you look at the reaction of carbon and oxygen, it doesn't produce carbon oxide, but carbon dioxide. So therefore I think if:Carbon + oxygen --> carbon dioxideThen:Sulphur + oxygen --> Sulphur dioxide

What type of acid is formed naturally in the atmosphere?
Carbonic, Sulphurous and Sulphuric acids are formed from Carbon Dioxide and Sulphur Dioxide which are produced naturally as well as from mad-made sources.
Does helium produce carbon dioxide?
No. helium does not produce carbon dioxide
Which gas is in acid rain?
Usually Carbon Dioxide and Sulphur Dioxide (Sulfur Dioxide if you are American)
Ethyl mercaptan burns to produce what which gas?
On combustion: C2H6S + 6O2 ---> 2CO2 + 3H2O + SO2 All of the products of the reaction (carbon dioxide, water, sulphur dioxide) are gases
What are the five greenhouse gases?
nitrogen gas, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide and methane gas
What fuels are in the air when hydrocarbons are burned?
sulphur oxicide, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and carbon.
What are some energy sources that produce carbon dioxide and water when burned?
Any & all fossil fuels.
