What else can I help you with?
Which gas will cause rainwater to have a pH of 6.0?
A PH of 7 is neutral, a PH falling below this means that the water is acidic. Carbon dioxide and SO2 are common gases found in the air which, when when dissolved in rainwater, will cause it to become acidic and thus lower the PH.
Acidic oxide and water what do they make?
Acidic oxides form (oxy)acids with water: eg. SO2 + H2O --> H2SO3
Is SO2 acidic or basic?
SO2 is acidic. When dissolved in water, it forms sulfurous acid, which can donate a hydrogen ion, making the solution acidic.
Is so2 a strong base?
No, SO2 (sulfur dioxide) is not a base. It is an acidic gas that can react with water to form sulfurous acid (H2SO3), making it an acidifying compound.
How do you make acid rain for science?
Acidic gases causes acid rain. SO2, NO2 are examples for that.
Is so2 neutral?
No sulphur dioxide is not neutral. It is acidic. It is one of the acidic gasses.
Why is rainwater normally slightly acidic?
The acidity is due to the presence of gases like sulfur and nitrogen compounds (SO2, SO3, NO2 ) as well as carbon dioxide. These combine with the water to form acidic solutions. In cases of extremely concentrated pollutants, this can form "acid rain" which is destructive to soil and to human building materials.
Is so2 a base?
No, when bubbled through water it produces sulfurous acid H2SO3.
Is SO2 acid?
Yes,it is an acid.It an acidic gas.
Which substance in acid rain makes it more acid acidic than natural water rainwater?
The presence of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the atmosphere can react with water vapor and form sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and nitric acid (HNO3), making the rain more acidic than natural rainwater. These pollutants are primarily released by human activities such as burning fossil fuels and industrial processes.
Is SO an acid or base?
There is no compound as SO. SO2 and SO3 are acidic
Is SO2 strongly acidic?
Yes,when dissolved in water forms H2SO3.
