Sulfur Dioxide
What petroleum by product is a source of acid rain?
Sulfur Dioxide
Are volcanoes the only source of acid rain?
No, volcanoes are not the only source of acid rain. While volcanic eruptions can release sulfur dioxide and other pollutants that contribute to acid rain, human activities, particularly the burning of fossil fuels, are the primary sources. These activities emit sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere, which can react with water vapor to form sulfuric and nitric acids, leading to acid rain. Other natural sources, such as wildfires and certain industrial processes, can also contribute to the phenomenon.
What would acid rain natural or man made?
Acid rain is natural and man made. As it is natural because its just like any normal rain but with the acid so it does have natural substances in but its also man made because all the chemicals in the air known as pollution are mostly caused by the workings of humans.
