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
Sulphur dioxide reacts with water to form sulphurous acid. The word equation for this reaction is: sulphur dioxide + water --> sulphurous acid.
Sulphur dioxide is produced in petrol engines due to the combustion of sulphur-containing compounds present in the fuel. When these compounds are burned, they react with oxygen to form sulphur dioxide as a byproduct, which is then emitted through the exhaust. Reducing the sulphur content in petrol can help minimize the production of sulphur dioxide emissions.
The word equation for sulfur when it burns is: sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide.
The chemical equation for sulphur dioxide is SO2, where one atom of sulfur is bonded to two atoms of oxygen. This compound is a colorless gas with a pungent odor, often produced by the combustion of sulfur-containing fossil fuels.
fuel + oxygen ------> carbon dioxide + water
Sulphur plus Oxygen gives Sulphur dioxide.... S + O2 = SO2
The chemical formula of sulfuric acid is H2SO4.
Sulphur and oxygen react to form either sulfur dioxide or sulfur trioxide, depending on reaction conditions.
4FeS2 + 11O2 ----> 2Fe2O3 + 8SO2
Industries should get the responsible. So2 is a acidic oxide.
Oxygen!!! However, you do NOT add oxygen, it is combined. Yellow elemental sulphur is heated in a flow of oxygen gas. The product is sulphur dioxide. It has a very acrid/acidic smell, so do NOT breath it in. Sulphur dioxide can be dissolved in water to form Sulphurous Acid. The reaction equation for the combination of sulphur and oxygen is ; - S(s) + O2(g) == heat==> SO2(g) The reaction equation for the combination of sulphur dioxide and water is:- SO2(g) + H2O(l) == H2SO3(aq) NOTE this is sulphurOUS Acid. SulphurIC Acid has the formula ' H2SO4 '. one extra oxygen in combination.
S (sulphur) + O2 (oxygen) = SO2 (sulphurdioxide)
