Sulfur dioxide

My element Sulfur is the most important element there is. The symbol for Sulfur is S. An yellow looking odorless substance that is found underground. Sulfur has an atomic number of 16, atomic weight of 32.065. The element Sulfur is classified as a non-mental with the boiling point of 832.28 degrees Fahrenheit and a melting point of 239.38 degrees Fahrenheit. There are several mixture of sulfur compounds, including the mineral pyrite, or iron sulfide. Each of these types of Sulfur plays its own…

sell Sulfur for a living may not be the right or cool thing to sell but I sell it. You can use my wonderful Sulfur to make cleaners and to make car batteries. This element is the easiest to find on the periodic table all you have to do is look for the letter (S). Let’s learn about the discovery of this wonderful object. This wonderful Sulfur was discovered around 1777. The special person that discovered this Sulfur would be Atonine Lavoisier. Sulfur was discovered In the Greek areas. Sulfur is a…

Introduction Acid rain is a rain that contains a high concentration of pollutants, chiefly sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels such as coal or oil .It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure, when the sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, react with the water . The chemicals in acid rain can cause paint to peel, corrosion of steel structures such as bridges, and weathering of stone buildings and statues.…

The oldest recorded source of water was from a well. A well is a hole in the ground from which a fluid is withdrawn. Water wells can be dug, driven, bored, or drilled. These wells are constructed with a type of tool or machine, some go down farther than others, but they all serve one purpose. To bring water to people’s homes (World Book Encyclopedia). Water wells are the most common types of wells today. The water in these wells come from rain that soaks in the ground. The underground water in…

1. Introduction Pre-industrial revolution, humans beings used to live a primitive life whereby they used wood for cooking, warming house; as biofuel. Even later when they lived in houses, they used candles to light up their homes. Post-industrial revolution, human beings discovered new energy resources which have made life much easier to live. And the discovery of these resources (coal and oil), have also supported the advancement of new technologies e.g. automobiles, airplanes, generation of…

are released into the air; it comes from electric power generators. These chemicals react would react with water, oxygen, and other substances to form delicate solution of sulfuric and nitric acid to form acidic pollutants. The source of sulphur dioxide comes from volcanoes, biological decay, forest fires; nitrogen oxides also comes from volcanoes and biological decay. Winds spread these acidic arrangements across the atmosphere and over many miles. At a point where acid rain reaches Earth, it…

Assignment 7 Power Station Emission Aim: The aim of this experiment is to measure the mass of sulphur dioxide in 1m3 of flue gas (waste gas from burning fossil fuels in a power station). To achieve this aim, titration of an unknown solution of sulphuric acid (around 0.2-0.4 mol) and sodium carbonate (0.2 mol) using methyl orange as an indicator. 1. Introduction Fossil fuel is formed from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to crude…

Roof Discolored? Know Three Potential Reasons Why Nobody wants a roof that is a community eyesore with discoloration. Unfortunately, there may be factors at play that are causing this blemish. In order to fix the problem, you must know what is causing it to occur. Here are three reasons why discoloration can happen to a roof. Pigment From Asphalt Shingles There is a process called extractive bleeding where black pigments found in your roof’s shingles can cause a stain to appear. It typically…

Acid rain is a precipitation which falls from the atmosphere to Earth. It contains a high level of nitrous oxide and sulphur dioxide. When they ge tin contact with water they transform to acid in the atmosphere, and then this acid is carried away by the wind thousaands of miles away from where they were created. The acidity is measured with the potential hydrogen (pH) on a scale from 0-14. The pH scale is a logarythmic measure which means that every change in pH is counted in the amount times…

Acid Rain: Pros and Cons Acid Rain. Acid Rain is regular rain fallen from the clouds then made sufficiently acidic by atmospheric pollution. This is created by the process of burning fossil fuels, they contain sulfur and nitrogen oxides, which combine with atmospheric water to form acids. When people hear the words “acid rain” they immediately think about the horrors of it. Few people think about the positive things that acid rain can bring to us. With the evidence given, both sides could be…
