acid rain
What else can I help you with?
What is rain that has more acid than normal in it called?
It is called acid rain.
Rain that contains more acid than normal is known as what?
Acid Rain , i know thats true because i read it out my science book.
What is the difference between acid rain and rain?
Acid rain is different to regular rain as it contains compounds of nitric oxide and other gases that have combined with water vapour in rain clouds to become acid rain...at least, i think so : )
Why is marble more prone to acid rain than limestone and chalk?
Marble is more prone to acid rain damage than limestone and chalk because marble is made of calcium carbonate but contains higher levels of impurities like iron that react with acid rain and cause greater deterioration. Limestone and chalk have fewer impurities and are more chemically stable, making them more resistant to acid rain.
Rain and other forms of precipitation that are more acidic than normal are called?
acid rain. It is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides interacting with the atmosphere and forming sulfuric acid and nitric acid. Acid rain can have harmful effects on the environment, including damaging vegetation and aquatic ecosystems.
Is damaging type of precipitation caused by oxides of sulfur and nitrogen called acid precipitation?
Yes, that is acid precipitation, but it is more usually called acid rain.
Does acid rain occur in the desert?
To have acid rain, you first have to have rain. And deserts are kind famous for not having much rain. So yeah, it CAN happen. But places with more rain will get more acid rain.
What countries cause acid rain?
All countries cause acid rain. The more fossil fuels they use and the more industries they have, the more acid rain they create.
What is an acid called if it contains more quantity of water?
Its typically called "Dilluted", example, "Sulphuric Acid" often used as "Dilluted Sulphuric Acid" in car batteries.
How does acid rain increase the acidity of soil?
Acid rain contains sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which react with water in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid. When acid rain falls to the ground, it decreases the soil pH by releasing hydrogen ions, making the soil more acidic. This can be harmful to plants and soil organisms.
Is acid rain more gaseous radioactive or more acidic than normal rain?
Acid rain is made from chemicals in the air mixing with water in the air. This makes the rain more acidic then normal rain.
Machanism of formation of acid rain?
Water (vapor) plus certain gasses combine to form acids: for example - CO2 plus water gives carbonic acid, sulfur gasses plus water gives all the relatives of sulfuric acid. Note that all rain tends to be acid - but the more extreme cases are called acid rain.
