What is the highest pH ever recorded from acid rain and where?
The highest ever recording was 4.9 i think in EuropeAnswer:Normal rain has a pH of 5.5 to 4.5. Acid rain has pH of anything less than 4.5 and reaches its strongest (lowest pH) value at about a pH of 2.The highest pH for acid rain (the weakest acid rain) would be at the lower value of normal rain water.
When burning petrol in motor vehicles 2 gases form which contribute to acid rain What are the 2 gases?
Two of the gases that form from burning petrol are nitrogen and carbon dioxide. These are two gases that are contributing to the acid rain affect.

What does the effect of acid rain cost us in terms of money?
Yes 1. Acid rain = acidicwater = less fish = less money for fisherman =l ess money to spend and there for effecting the economy. 2. Acid rain= damaged buildings=claims on insurance = less money for insurance company and there for effecting the economy. 3. Visit Great Smoky Mountains National Park in the United States.

What kind of acid is in acid rain?
There are two possible types of acid in acid rain. 1) The acid formed from Carbon Dioxide (from natural Carbon Dioxide in air, from man burning fossil fuels and from volcanic gasses); Carbonic Acid 2) The acid formed from Sulfur Dioxide (from man burning fossil fuels and from volcanic gasses); Sulfuric Acid.
