Acid Rain
true.
Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are the primary gasses.
Nitrogen and sulphur oxides are poisonous gases which are released from vehicles and industries. They are poisonous and cause breathing problems and other respiratory problems. Not only this, these gases are most commonly referred air pollutants. Nitrogen oxides are among the few ozone depletors.
Yes, burning coal releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These all combine with rain to form acid rain. Carbon dioxide actually forms a very weak acid rain but the others are more damaging.
Acid Rain
Acid rain forms when nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides combine with water in the air to form nitric acid and sulfuric acid.
Acid Rain
true.
Acid rain is caused by sulfur and nitrogen oxides.
Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are the primary gasses.
No. Acid rain is the result of nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides put into the atmosphere by volcanoes and the burning of fossil fuels.
Of itself no, but in the compound CO2 yes.

high concentrations of compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides can cause acid rain if in the air.
Nonrenewable energy sources cause pollution through emitting carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, other green house gases, heavy metals as mercury, lead, cadmium, ... etc.
Oxides of Nitrogen, Oxides of Sulfur, Carbon Monoxide, PM10 (aka soot), and Carbon Dioxide (which won't technically kill you but may be causing climate change)
