Nitrogen and Sulfur Flashcards
1
Q
How are photochemical smog formed
A
Nitrogen Oxides reacts with unburnt hydrocarbon which forms PAN
2
Q
Equation of how catalytic converter reduces the amount of nitrogen oxides gases released into the atmosphere
A
2NO + 2CO —> 2CO2 + N2
3
Q
Reagent required to make NH3 (g) into NH4Cl (s)
A
Ca(OH)2
4
Q
equation of formation of acid rain
A
2NO(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2NO2(g)
- Then NO2 reacts with rain and oxygen in the
4NO2(aq) + 2H2O(l) + O2(g) —> 4HNO3(aq)
5
Q
What does NO2 catalyse
A
Oxidation of SO2 to SO3
NO2(g) + SO2(g) —> SO3(g) + NO(g)
