Answer:

S_{(g)}+O_2_{(g)}\rightarrow SO_2_{(g)}

Explanation:

Sulfur in the pressure of oxygen produces sulfur dioxide gas. The balanced chemical reaction is shown below as:-

S_{(g)}+O_2_{(g)}\rightarrow SO_2_{(g)}

The enthalpy change of the reaction is ΔH = -297 kJ/mol. This burning of sulfur reaction is exothermic in nature and this combustion can produce temperature of upto 1000 °C or more.

Sulfur in the elemental state oxidises and changes its oxidation number from 0 to +4 and oxygen reduces and changes its oxidation number from 0 to -2.

Balanced chemical equation: S(s) + O₂(g) → SO₂(g).

Sulfur change oxidation number from 0 to +4 (oxidation) and oxygen change oxidation number from 0 to -2 (reduction).

Sulfur dioxide (SO₂) is very common volcanic gas.

Fossil fuel combustion increases the acidity of rain because the sulfur dioxide is produced.  

Because of fuel combustion, sulfur dioxide goes up into the atmosphere as the hot gases rise, than it reacts with water and oxygen in the air and form sulfuric acid.

Identify the combustion reaction. c4h12 + 7o2 ⟶ 6h2o + 4co2 2h2 + o2 ⟶ 2h2o al2s3 ⟶ 2al + 3s cl2 + 2kbr ⟶ 2kcl + br2
Levart [38]
From the given equations, the combustion reaction is;
C₄H₁₂ + 7O₂ --> 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
Combustion reactions are when organic compounds react with O₂ to produce water and CO₂. From the given reactions, C₄H₁₂ is an organic compound that reacts with O₂ to produce water and CO₂.
Therefore this is the only reaction that follows the general equation for combustion.

46g of a mineral contained 16g copper, 14g iron and 16g sulphur. Calculate the empirical
pochemuha

Answer:

CuFeS2

Explanation:

Calculate the moles of each substance by doing moles= mass/relative atomic mass. you should get 0.25 moles of copper and iron and 0.5 moles of sulfur. Then divide all of those numbers by 0.25 (as its the lowest value) you should get 1 for copper and iron and 2 for sulfur. This represents the ratio that they are in within the mineral.
