Reactions of Non-Metals With Oxygen

The document summarizes reactions of non-metals with oxygen, including specific examples of carbon and sulfur reacting with oxygen through combustion. It also discusses how non-metal oxides produced in these reactions contribute to acid rain by reacting with water vapor in the atmosphere to produce acids that fall as rain.

The focus of this
lesson
This section of the
work focuses on the
reaction of NON-
METALS with
oxygen.

This also happens in a


combustion reaction.

Do you remember what combustion is?

Non-metal + oxygen → non-metal


oxide

Any non-metal + oxygen Non-metal oxide
02
Reaction of
carbon with
oxygen
Let’s see how it
reacts
Let’s look at the reaction formula

carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide

Reactants Products
carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide
C + O₂ → CO₂

Before moving on you you need to ask yourself “is the reaction
balanced?”

Let’s see how it
reacts
Let’s look at the reaction formula

Sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide

Reactants Products
sulfur + oxygen → sulfur dioxide
S + O₂ → SO₂

Before moving on you you need to ask yourself “is the reaction

As an added
extra, let’s
look at how

Harmful
Non-metal effects of acid
oxides rain includes
include
Carbon dioxide, sulfur Acid ★ Negative effects on plants and
animals that could lead to poor
dioxide, nitrogen oxides
and others rain development or even death.
★ Negative effects on buildings such
as causing paint to peel.
★ Causing statues to become worn
reducing their beauty and value.
When it
rains
The dissolved non-metal
oxides have made the rain
acidic
