Sulfur dioxide can be produced by the combustion of sulfur, hydrogen sulfide or organic sulfides by the reactions:
RxS+O2 --> Rcombustion products+SO2
S+O2 --> SO2
2H2S+3O2 --> 2H2O+2SO2
The chemical formula (not equation) of sulfur dioxide is SO2.
H2o+so2=h2so3.....
Sulphur plus Oxygen gives Sulphur dioxide.... S + O2 = SO2
The chemical formula of sulfuric acid is H2SO4.
The equation is CS2 + 3 O2 -> CO2 + 2 SO2.
fuel + oxygen ------> carbon dioxide + water
Sulphur and oxygen react to form either sulfur dioxide or sulfur trioxide, depending on reaction conditions.
S (sulphur) + O2 (oxygen) = SO2 (sulphurdioxide)
4FeS2 + 11O2 ----> 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2
Industries should get the responsible. So2 is a acidic oxide.
"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
The difference between sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide is that there are 2 molecules of oxygen present in sulphur dioxide (SO2) and there are 3 molecules of oxygen are present in sulphur trioxide (SO3).
