What do smog and acid rain have in common?

Smog produces acid rain by the simple fact that rain water (H2O) mixes with the various compounds in smog, which then produces acid rain. Various chemicals in smog produce different kinds of acid rain.

Why do you think the rain became acidic?

Acid rain is rain that has an unusually low pH. It becomes acidic because of the presence of certain components (mostly from pollution) that lower itÕs pH. The most common chemicals that cause acid rain are sulfur and nitric oxides because they can react with water to form sulfuric acid and ntiric acid:


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.


Why does Calcium carbonate dissolve in rain water - when it is insoluble in pure water?

Rain water is not pure H2O. Even under natural conditions, rain water can contain carbonic acid (due to CO2), and lightning can cause the creation of nitric acid. So these acids can attack calcium carbonate even in unpolluted rainwater.Additionally, the rainwater might be polluted with even stronger acidic compounds. Sulfuric acid, for example, is a common pollutant of rain water.
