How is sulphur dioxide released in to the atmosphere?
Sulfur dioxide is released into the atmosphere primarily through human activities such as burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil, and industrial processes like metal smelting. It can also be released by natural sources like volcanic eruptions.
What human activities release sulphur dioxide ,carbon monoxide and oxide of nitrogen to the atmosphere?
Burning of fossil
What human activities relase sulphur dioxide carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen to the atmosphere?
Burning of fossil fuels
Is sulphur dioxide a hydrocarbonprotienvitamen mineral or lipid?
It is a mineral. Sulphur dioxide certainly is not a lipid.
How much sulfur dioxide is produced daily in our atmosphere?
The atmosphere doesn't produce any sulphur dioxide. It receives a fair bit from various human activities though.
Which energy sources produce carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide?
Burning coal (a fossil fuel) releases carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide.
Is sulphur dioxide an acid base or neutral?
Sulphur dioxide is an acidic compound. When dissolved in water, sulphur dioxide produces sulphurous acid, which gives it acidic properties.
What do you add to sulphur to make sulphur dioxide?
You add oxygen to sulfur to make sulfur dioxide.
Why is sulphur dioxide produced in petrol engines?
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.
Is sulfur dioxide given off by burning petroleum?
Some petroleum fuels such as Bunker C or heavy diesel contain significant amounts of sulphidic compounds and some natural fuel gases are known as sour when they contain hydrogen sulfide. In both of these cases when the fuels are burned they will produce sulphur dioxide. In automotive diesel there is a small amount of sulphur. This, because of the combustion conditions, is not released as sulpur dioxide, but as solid sulfate particulate. Fuels which contain no sulphur (refined and treaterd by sulphur removal) do not give off sulphur dioxide.
Which substance gives sulphur dioxide when heated in air?
Burning sulfur-containing materials, such as coal, oil, or natural gas, releases sulfur dioxide when heated in air.
What do gas have?
sulphur dioxide
