What human activity responsible for the formation of smog and acid rain?
The burning of fossil fuels can cause smog and acid rain.
What kind of acid is found in acid rain?
The main and the most possible way of the addition of acid to the atmosphere is from industrial factories such as sulfur dioxide and acids of phosphorus. Burning certain compounds also adds acid, for an example, burning of vulcanized rubber results in the addition of sulfur dioxide. When these acid vapors are dissolved in rain water, it is called an acid rain.
The release of sulfur oxides is a chief cause of acid rain What human activity is primarily responsible for acid rain?
fuel burning except in vehicles
Can the burning of fossils result in acid rain?
yes the burning of fossil fuels can result in acid rain
Are dust particles a cause of acid rain?
No. Acid rain is the result of nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides put into the atmosphere by volcanoes and the burning of fossil fuels.
Is burning of coal a cause of acid precipitation?
Yes, burning coal releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These all combine with rain to form acid rain. Carbon dioxide actually forms a very weak acid rain but the others are more damaging.
What is a cause of acid rain from burning coal?
All coal has some amount of sulfur in it. The sulfur burns into sulfur dioxide, which reacts with water to make sulfurous acid in the rain.
What acid is the main acid in acid rain?
Sulphuric acid from burning coal.
