It is used in some soaps, makes gunpowder ,used on matches, in fertilizers ,fungicides, and pesticides. Only sulfur that isn't pure has a rotten egg smell, and those that do smell has only a hint of that smell. Basically, what it does is blows up when mixed with a few other chemicals, kills things, but also helps your plants grow and you rub it on yourself. O.o

What are The three primary pollutant gases?
Carbon monoxide Sulfur dioxide Nitrogen oxide (Switched on School House)
Which of these is not an major air pollutant measured by air quality index sulfur dioxide carbon monoxide particle pollution lead?
lead
How are sulfur dioxide carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide produced in combustion?
Sulfur and carbon are oxidized during the combustion process. Sulfur normally forms two compounds when it burns, Sulfur dioxide and to a lesser extent sulfur trioxide. This is normal. Carbon when it burns produces carbon dioxide, if there is not enough air provided to the combustion it will produce carbon monoxide, which is an incomplete reaction. Carbon monoxide is combustible gas and can be burned further into carbon dioxide, with the proper application of air. Nitrogen oxides, nitrous and nitric oxide, are a separate process. These chemical bonds require a heat input to form, and rob heat from a fuel. Typically they are not formed at temperatures under 1500F (816C). These compounds are formed from nitrogen in either the fuel or the air, a very hot flame is required to produce them.
Why is sulfur dioxide not called SO onstead of SO2 as both have same valency of 2?
Good question. Sulfur dioxide means there is 1 sulfur atom and 2 oxygen atoms, and is not giving any information about the valence or oxidation state. Think of this.... Carbon monoxide = CO and Carbon dioxide = CO2
What pollutants are released from fossil fuel combustion?
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides are the pollutants released from fossil fuel combustion.
Is Carbon Monoxide or Sulfur Dioxide more deadly?
carbon monoxide
What is the name for SO?
sulfur monoxide
What is the systematic name for SO?
This is the sulfur monoxide.
What are the ten gases?
Most common gas pollutants: Carbon dioxide Carbon monoxide Nitrogen dioxide Nitrogen monoxide Dinitrogen monoxide Sulfur dioxide Sulfur trioxide ChloroFluoroCarbons Methane Ammonia
What type of chemical bond does sulfur monoxide have?
Blood
Why is sulfur dioxide more stable than sulfur monoxide?
do the Lewis structure. It has all the answers. :)
What is the chemical symbol for SO?
The chemical symbol for sulfur dioxide is SO2.
How many sulfur atoms are in a molecule of carbon monoxide?
Zero.
What is the name of SO compound?
The SO compound is Sulfur Monoxide.
Does an organic compound contain sulfur?
There are a lot of sulfur oxides, Sulfur monoxide, dioxide, trioxide to name just three. Sulfur monoxide is untable and is only transient, sulfur dioxide is the one that causes the problems in the atmosphere and is a precursor to H2SO4 industrially
What is sulfur monoxide?
You probably mean sulfur monoxide, SO. This is a gas that is not found very often, and when it is found, it is the dilute gas phase. If it gets more concentrated, it turns into disulfur dioxide, S2O2.
