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

Sulphar burns with oxygen to form?

When you burn sulphur with oxygen you create sulphur dioxide or sulphur trioxide.


What answer of burning paper physical change o chemical change?

Chemical change. Burning anything will create a chemical change. Burning involves taking the object/substance being burnt + oxygen to produce water and carbon dioxide.


What primarily causes acid rain?

Pollutants caused from burning fossil fuels are a primary factor. The two main gasses that create acid rain are Sulphur Dioxide and Nitrogen Oxide, both of which are byproducts of burning fossil fuels in different forms.


Is burning oil gas or wood a physical or chemical change?

Chemical. The organic components are mostly oxidised to carbon dioxide and water which is where the heat comes from. Nitrogen and sulphur compounds - in burning wood - will pyrolyse and create a cocktail of unpleasant/subtle compounds which may be oxidised or acceptable for smoking salmon or herrings. Ash is composed of the trace metal oxides and carbonates, e.g., Potassium, casually known as potash.


Why a burning fuel containing sulphur as an impurity causes acid rain?

When sulphur burns, it reacts with oxygen to form sulphur dioxide (SO2), which can then combine with water in the atmosphere to create sulphuric acid (H2SO4). This acid falls back to the surface as acid rain, causing environmental damage to soil, water bodies, and vegetation.


Is sulphur magnetic?

Sulphur is not magnetic because its atoms do not have unpaired electrons to create a magnetic field. Magnetic properties are typically associated with elements that have unpaired electrons, which sulphur lacks.


What will result in a chemical change?

Anything that will create a new substance or change the chemical makeup of the substance. Burning, cooking, oxidizing, and other chemical reactions are examples.

How is burning of paper different from tearing it?

Burning paper involves a chemical change where the paper is oxidized to create ash and smoke, releasing energy in the form of heat and light. Tearing paper is a physical change where the paper is physically separated into smaller pieces, but the paper itself remains unchanged chemically.
