By burn coal,coal release sulphur to atmosphere
air pollution can make rainwater more acidic than it is naturally.
Rain can be made more acidic by reactions with nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide, which react with water to form nitric acid and sulfuric acid respectively.
Rain is natrually acidic due to carbon dioxide, which react with water to form carbonic acid. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide from industrial process can also react to form sulfuric and nitric acids, which can make rain abnormally acidic.
sulfurous acid or H2SO3
Burning it makes sulfur dioxide which is water soluble, resulting in sulfurous acid solution.
Sulfur + Oxygen = Sulfur Dioxide
Sulphur dioxide (or sulfur dioxide is you don't live in Britain like me) causes the rain to turn acidic and this is released when fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, are burned to make energy.
Sulfur dioxide is a colorless gas or liquid with a strong, choking odor. It is produced from the burning of fossil fuels and the smelting of mineral ores that contain sulfur. Sulfur dioxide dissolves easily in water to form sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid is a major component of acid rain. Acid rain can damage forests and crops, change the acidity of soils, and make lakes and streams acidic and unsuitable for fish.
No. When Sulphur burns it turns into Sulphur Dioxide. It does not become an alkaline gas, but combines with water to form Sulphuric Acid - as in acidic rain Aliyah. Hope it helps
It makes Sulphur Dioxide. and little Sulphur Trioxide.
Sulfur Oxygen
Sulfur dioxide, SO2, or sulfur trioxide, SO3.
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.
