A student burns a non-metal and the gas so produced is dissolved in water. What would the student do next to chemical properties of the product formed? |

Answer» Sulfer is a non-metal elements on burning in the presence at oxygen, it is forms SO2 and SO3 non-metal oxides. S8(g) + O2(g) \(\overset{Burn}{\longrightarrow}\) SO2 + SO3 On dissolving these non-metal oxide in water, they are formed corresponding acids. SO2(g) + H2O(l) → \(\underset{\text{Sulfurous acid}}{H_2SO_3(aq)}\) SO3(g) + H2O(l) → \(\underset{\text{Sulfuric acid}}{H_2SO_4(aq)}\) Hence, non-metal oxides in water acidic in nature. |
