Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.

Describe the chemical reactions of SO2, SO3, and SO. These chemical reactions are happening at room temperature. Make sure you say if the chemical reaction cant happen

Accepted Answer

The chemical reactions of SO2, SO3, and SO at room temperature are as follows:

SO2

+ Reaction with water: SO2(g) + H2O(l) → H2SO3(aq)
+ Reaction with oxygen: 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2 SO3(g)

SO3

+ Reaction with water: SO3(g) + H2O(l) → H2SO4(aq)

SO

+ Reaction with oxygen: 2 SO(g) + O2(g) → 2 SO2(g)

Note: SO is a highly reactive molecule that is not stable at room temperature. It quickly reacts with oxygen to form SO2.
