Why does calcium carbonate react to acid rain?
sulfuric acid in the rain water reacts with calcium carbonate.
What is made during sulfur dioxide pollution?
acid rain; SO2, i.e. sulfur dioxide, reacts with water to produce H2SO3, or sulfurous acid, which then reacts with oxygen to form sulphuric acid (H2SO4), and dissolves in rain to fall as acid rain
What reacts with water to create acid precipitation and decomposition?
Do you mean like acid rain
How do sulfur dioxides emissions contribute to acid rain?
Beacuse the SO2 reacts with rain water to produce sulfurous acid. SO2 + H2O ----> H2SO3 and this can be further oxidized to sulfuric acid.
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 affects how quickly acid rain reacts with calcium carbonate?
It's the concentration of the acid. By Fazad
What kind of scientist would study the affects of acid rain on a marble statue?
Geologist. Possibly a chemist.
Is the Statue of Liberty a physical change or a chemical change?
No its a chemical change because the acid in the rain reacts with the copper in the statue having a reaction oxidizing it and turning it green.
Why would statues look different due to weathering?
they crumble by acid rain and they rain makes hole in the statue they crumble by acid rain and they rain makes hole in the statue they crumble by acid rain and they rain makes hole in the statue
How can rain deteriorate the stone in statue?
there is acid in rain.
Does acid rain cause marble to dissolve?
Yes, it does! marble is basic and reacts with the acid rain.
What happens in when SO2 reacts with rain water?
When SO2 [Sulphur Dioxide] reacts with water Sulphuric Acid [H2SO4] is created, which is commonly refered to as "acid rain."
Why does calcium carbonate react to acid rain?
sulfuric acid in the rain water reacts with calcium carbonate.
What is made during sulfur dioxide pollution?
acid rain; SO2, i.e. sulfur dioxide, reacts with water to produce H2SO3, or sulfurous acid, which then reacts with oxygen to form sulphuric acid (H2SO4), and dissolves in rain to fall as acid rain
Rain that contains a large amount of acid?
acid rain (it can destroy limestone) (it also made the Statue of Liberty green)
What effects the rate at which acid rain reacts with a statue?
Rate od reaction would depend on:Concentration )pH) of the acid rainMaterial of construction of the statue (Limestone significant impact, granite none)The average temperatureThe exposure to wind, rain and sunshine (to heat the statue)Any preservative measures used as maintenance
What is pH of acid rain?
Acid rain has a pH of 5.0 or less. Rain reacts with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and forms a mildly acidic carbonic acid before it becomes rain.
