Dec 10, 2017 · $\ce{SO2(g) + H2O(l) = H2SO3(aq)}$ What I tried: A Lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. A Lewis base is an electron pair donor. The other problems of this type involved …

Aug 16, 2015 · Therefore we expect $\ce{SO2}$ to have the largest bond angle of the four molecules, and this is indeed the case. $\ce{H2O}$ and $\ce{NH3}$ are hydrides of the same …

Aug 26, 2020 · Majority of texts (at high school level) say that when $\ce{SO2}$ is dissolved in water sulphurous acid $\ce{H2SO3}$ is formed. However my text book states that it forms …

Jun 13, 2015 · Upon adding $\ce{SO2}$ gas to water, it shows its acidic oxide character by hydrolyzing to sulfurous acid: $$\ce{SO2(g) + H2O(l) <=> H2SO3(aq)}$$ $\ce{H2SO3}$ is a …

Jan 7, 2016 · Orthocresol already sufficiently pointed out, that half-reactions are a book-keeping tool for electrons. When talking about electrolysis there might be coincidental overlap between …

Nov 10, 2014 · WELL I think you put something erroneous in your reduction formula. You will never get SO3 out of just O2 and water.

Mar 1, 2018 · Since $\ce{SO2}$ is a strong reducing agent, it reduces $\ce{Mn}$ as denoted by the equation $$\ce{5SO2 + 2KMnO4 + 2H2O -> 2H2SO4 + 2MnSO4 + K2SO4}$$ Both the …

Sep 15, 2022 · This is indeed very close to 120∘ so you can say that the VSEPR method gives a good approximation of the SO2 bond angle. The essence of my question revolves around the …

And finally, we have another decomposition namely that of sulfurous acid to sulfur dioxide $\ce{SO2}$ and water. This can be seen as the back-reaction of a Lewis acid-base reaction …

Apr 23, 2024 · In the presence of $\ce{NH3}$, a white $\ce{BaSO3}$ precipitate is produced according to : $$\ce{Ba^{2+} + SO2 + H2O -> BaSO3 + 2 H+}\tag{1}$$ followed here by …
