Question

Write the chemical equation for : "sulphur combines with oxygen to form sulphur-di-oxide'​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sulfur reacts with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide. When nonmetals react with one another, the product is a molecular compound. Often, the nonmetal reactants can combine in different ratios and produce different products. Sulfur can also combine with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide.

Answer 2

Answer:

Sulfur reacts with oxygen in air to form Sulfur dioxide which is a major irritant and one of the causes for acid rain.

Sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide

S(s)+O2(g)→SO2(g)

If you are wondering how acid rain is made by sulfur biting in air:

Sulfur dioxide, which is a product of sulfur burning in air reacts with water in air to produce sulfurous acid. (SO2(g)+H2O(g)→H2SO3(aq))

When sulfurous acid is oxidized it becomes sulfuric acid which contributes in lowering the pH of the rain..
