Does acid rain corrode metal?
According to HowStuffWorks, acid rain can corrode both stone and metal, effectively speeding up the weathering process. http://science.howstuffworks.com/acid-rain2.htm
How does sulfuric acid turn into acid rain?
Sulfur dioxide from industry and car exhaust combines with the water in clouds to form sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid bubbled into water produces sulfuric acid, and this method is even used in the production of sulfuric acid, known as the contact process. This process basically occurs nearly the same way in the clouds, and the resulting acid falls as acid rain.
Is acid rain pure liquid?
no because during the whole process other things get mixed in.
What is the symbol for acid rain?

Is NaOH acid rain?
No. NaOH is sodium hydroxide, which is a strong base, not an acid, and is not found in rain. Acid rain is rain that is unusually acidic due to the presence of nitric acid (HNO3) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Acid rain is still mostly water.
What does acid rain have to do with weathering?
Acid rain speeds up the process of weathering!
What is the effect of acid rain do to national mounments?

Is there a process that removes CO2 through acid rain?

How is it possible for acid rain in other parts of the world to affect us in new zealand?
Acid rain damages a plants germination process. If to much acid rain= is given to it, it will die. (SAD) :-(
What is the purpose of acid rain?
Acid rain serves no purpose. It causes environmental damage. Acid rain is a process where the products of combustion (sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen) mix with the upper atmosphere in the formation of rain, causing the rain to have a slight to moderate acidity. Acid rain can destroy forests and natural habitats. In this process, the ecosystem or interaction between plants and animals is altered.

Conclusion of acid rain?
Acid rain is acid rain.
Is the corrosive action of acid rain on granite a physical property?
It is a chemical process.
How can mining create acid rain?
Mining does not create acid rain. Smelting of mined ores (a different process entirely) creates acid rain when sulfur dioxide is releases, Mining can cause acid mine drainage a bacterial impact of bacteria such as thiobacillus thioxidans on sulfates and sulfides.
