Write the skeletal equation for the following reactions :
(i) Hydrogen sulphide reacts with sulphur dioxide to form sulphur and
water.
(ii) Methane on burning combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide
and water.

Open in App

Solution

The skeletal equations for the said reactions are as follows
(i) H₂S + SO₂ â†’S + H₂O
The balanced for of the above equation is
2H₂S + SO₂ â†’ 3S + 2H₂O
(ii) CH₄ + O₂ â†’ CO₂ + H₂O
The balanced for of the above equation is
CH₄ + 2O₂ â†’ CO₂ + 2H₂O
