Question

why magnesium continue to burn in a gas jar full of sulpur(iv)oxide

Answer 1

When magnesium is burning, it produces more heat energy than sulfur. As a result, the heat produced by the burning magnesium causes the NO to break down into N2 and O2. As a result, there is insufficient O2 in the jar to allow the combustion of the sulfur to continue, and so the burning sulfur is
