What is the effects of acid rain on metals?
It causes the matals to rust faster.
Does acid rain affect metals?
To some extent, yes and they release H2 gas after the reaction.
Why is burning of non metals responsible for acid rain?
Burning creates oxides such as C02 and nitrous oxides. These react with the water in the air (H20), combining with the hydrogen in the water to form acids: carbonic acid and nitric acid respectively.
What kinda vinegar do you use to make acid rain?
The acids in acid rain and vinegar are completely different! The acid in vinegar is ethanoic acid, CH3COOH. It is an organic, weak acid that when diluted in water wouldn't be strong enough to cause the damage that acid rain causes. On the other hand, acid rain contains heavily diluted sulphuric acid, H2SO4. This is one of the three strong acids- that can make metals like Magnesium, Mg, completely corrode. Therefore, this acid causes the damage, not ethanoic...
How does acid rain affect rocks metals and living organisms?
Acid rain is the result of sulfur compounds entering the atmosphere through the burning of fossil fuels. When it rains, these compounds enter raindrops and fall to the ground. These chemicals have a lower pH (possible Hydrogen) which is a measure of acidity and basicity. Any ecosystem near a coal fired power plant is susceptible to acid rain, however, the most obvious are forests and lakes.
What is rain acid?
