How does burning contribute to acid rain?
It contributes by the burning of fossil fuels like coal that realeases sulphur
How does burning fossil fuels in power stations affect the acidity of rainwater?
Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases carbon dioxide as well as sulphur and nitrous oxides. All these will dissolve in clouds and rain which turns the rainwater acidic (acid rain).
What substances responsible for acid precipitation are released into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels?
Oxides of nitrogen and sulphur.
How does burning fossil fuels affect earths atmosphere?
Burning fossil fuels adds carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, to the atmosphere. This can raise global temperatures.
How can sulphur impurities be dealt with in fossil fuels?
Sulphur impurities in fossil fuels can be dealt with through a process called desulphurization. This involves treating the fuels with a desulphurizing agent to remove the sulphur compounds present. Alternatively, low-sulphur fossil fuels can be used, or technologies like fuel scrubbers can be employed to reduce sulphur emissions during combustion.
What human activities relase sulphur dioxide carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen to the atmosphere?
Burning of fossil fuels
What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels?
Burning of fossil fuels is an oxidation reaction.
How does burning fossil fuels affect the atmosphere?
because it will release carbon dioxide in to the air
Why is burning fossil fuels an issue?
Bcoz burning of fossil fuels releases poisonous fuels which are harmful to human health....;)
The majority of the worlds electricity is supplied by burning 2 words?
fossil fuels
What is the substance that causes the acid rain?
Sulphur , in a form of sulphur dioxide or sulphur oxide , I think. Acid rain can be caused by either nitric oxide or sulfur dioxide in the air, which result from the burning of fossil fuels.
What primarily causes acid rain?
Pollutants caused from burning fossil fuels are a primary factor. The two main gasses that create acid rain are Sulphur Dioxide and Nitrogen Oxide, both of which are byproducts of burning fossil fuels in different forms.
