Why lakes with limestone beds experience less adverse affects from acid rain than lakes with granite beds?
Limestone is a basic rock that can neutralize acid rain, whereas granite is an acidic rock that can make bodies of water more susceptible to acidification. When acid rain reacts with limestone, it forms less harmful compounds than when it reacts with granite. This difference in buffering capacity helps lakes with limestone beds to experience less adverse effects from acid rain.
What gas is produced when acid rain falls on a limestone statue?
When acid rain falls on a limestone statue, carbon dioxide gas is produced as a result of the reaction between the acid rain (which contains sulfuric acid or nitric acid) and the calcium carbonate in the limestone.

What effects does acid rain have on limestone?
Acid rain can gradually dissolve and deteriorate limestone structures by reacting with the calcium carbonate in the rock. This reaction can lead to the erosion and eventual breakdown of the limestone, causing damage to buildings, statues, and monuments made from this material. Over time, the acidification process may alter the appearance and structural integrity of limestone surfaces.
