Question

Ankit took some sulphur powder in a deflagrating spoon and heated it. After this he immediately suspended it in a gas jar. He added some water to it and suspended red and blue litmus paper in it.
Write the observations made by Ankit and the chemical equations involved.in Write the product formed when sulphur reacts with oxygen.
The acid which is formed on dissolving this product in water turns blue litmus red. Name the product formed when sulphur reacts with oxygen. What is the nature of this product?

Answer 1

Answer:

The chemical equations are

S₂ + O₂ ====> SO₂              (When sulphur and oxygen combine)

SO₂ + H₂O ====> H₂SO₄    (When the product is immersed in water)

The product formed is sulphuric acid....When oxygen reacts with sulphur, sulphur dioxide is formed.The nature of sulphur dioxide is acidic.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

The chemical equations are

S₂ + O₂ ====> SO₂              (When sulphur and oxygen combine)

SO₂ + H₂O ====> H₂SO₄    (When the product is immersed in water)

The product formed is sulphuric acid. When oxygen reacts with sulphur, sulphur dioxide is formed.The nature of sulphur dioxide is acidic
