H2SO3 Sulfurous acid is the chemical compound with the formula H2SO3. H2SO3 is a clear‚ colorless liquid with a sulfurous odor. It is a weak acid that is formed when sulfur dioxide is dissolved in water. Sulfurous acid is used as a bleaching and chemical reducing agent that is often used in medicine‚ throat and nasal sprays and skin lotions. Antiseptics‚ anti-fermentative‚ and antizymotics include sulfites that are formed from the acid. This compound is only stable in aqueous solutions‚ and

rainfall is slightly acidic because carbon dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves in the raindrops to produce hydrogen ions. Yet‚ normal rainfall is not considered acid rain. Acid rain is a form of air pollution in which airborne acids produced by electric utility plants and other sources fall to Earth in distant regions. The corrosive nature of acid rain causes widespread damage to the environment. The problem begins with the production of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from the burning of fossil fuels

Equilibrium and Acid Base Test Review: May 2012 Things to know: 1. Explain DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM. Why does a reaction at equilibrium look like it is NOT reacting? 2. Are all reactions equilibrium reactions? What assumptions do we make when we say that a reaction does NOT take place or that it is UNIDIRECTIONAL and goes 100% to completion 3. Be able to sketch a graph of the following (assuming that you start with all reactants and no products) : a. A reaction that really doesn’t do anything

Eichbauer IB Chemistry II – Period 6 16 February 2015 Investigation of the Effects of Acid Rain Background Information Acid rain is when there is a mix of wet and dry deposited material in the atmosphere that have higher levels of nitric and sulfuring acid. These chemicals formed can be from natural causes‚ like volcanoes and the decay of vegetation‚ or man made causes like fossil fuel combustion. Acid rain can be measured using the pH scale‚ and will always be on the lower end of the spectrum

Acids‚ Bases‚ and Buffers Introduction: The pH scale is used to determine how acidic or basic a solution is‚ ranging from 1-14. The most acidic of all acids are at a pH level of 1 and the most basic of all bases are at 14. The neutral pH level is 7‚ which is what drinking water is. The pH level is determined by the amount of H+ ions present in a solution‚ and the more H+ ions there are the more acidic it is‚ and the lack of these ions results in more basic solutions. One distinguishing feature

First of which involves removing all of the flesh from the hide‚ once this is complete the hide goes into a solution known as the pickling processes. Once to this stage there are several products that may be used in order to complete a pickled fur. There are three main components to creating a pickling solution; these consist of sulfuric acid‚ non-iodized salt‚
