What is acid rain a result of?
The rain containing excess of acid is known as an acid rain. The rain becomes acidic because carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide (which are released into the air as pollutants) dissolve in rain drops to form carbonic acid, sulphuric acid and nitric acid respectively. Acid rain cause damage to buildings, historical monuments, plants and animals.
What is a LIKELY result of the mixing of pollutants with water vapor?
Acid rain I believe.
Is rainfall from polluted areas an alkaline or and acid?
It depends on what is suspended in the air. The rain will take the pollutants out of the air as it falls. If they are acidic you'll have acid rain.
What are the different opinions on acid rain?
there are no different viewpoints on acid rain unfortunately, it is aggreed that it is caused by sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides of the pollutants and exhaust of cars
What chemicals make up acid rain?
Although rain is slightly acidic naturally from carbon dioxide exposure, acid rain (the very low pH rain) is associated with sulphur and nitrogen oxides dissolving in the rain.
Is acid rain a natural pollutant?
no, not really. acid rain has pollutants in it, but acid rain itself is not a pollutant
Acid caused by pollutants that combine with water in the air?
When acids caused by pollutants combine with water in the air, acid rain is formed. Some examples of acidic air pollutants are sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.
What is produced when rain water mixes with pollutants?
acid rain
What is acid rain and how does it form?
Acid rain is just polluted rain. It forms when it rains normally, but the rain carries any pollutants in the air (from things like cars or factory smoke) and brings it down with it
If nitrogen oxides react with other air pollutants in the presence of sunlight will it form acid rain?
yes Does it also form photchemical smog
Why is normal rain not regarded as a form of acid rain?
It depends on the amount of pollutants in the atmosphere. There is always an amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, and this causes a mild form of acid rain everywhere, so all rain is somewhat acidic. More extreme acid rain occurs from unregulated emissions from factories and power plants.
What is acid rain a result of?
The rain containing excess of acid is known as an acid rain. The rain becomes acidic because carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide (which are released into the air as pollutants) dissolve in rain drops to form carbonic acid, sulphuric acid and nitric acid respectively. Acid rain cause damage to buildings, historical monuments, plants and animals.
Which contributes to acid rain?
Acid rain is acidic by certain pollutants in the air like, carbon monoxide/ dioxide.
How is acid rain made in a easy way of saying it?
acid rain is made by pollutants in the air that give the the rain an acid or vinegar like feeling acid rain destroys plants animals and buildings
Is acid rain a widespread problem?
yes it can only if we reduce our pollutants.
What is produced when rainwater mixes with pollutants?
It depends upon the types of pollutants, but a common result is acid rain.
What is caused by pollutants that combine with water and air?
The kind of acid that is caused by pollutants that combine with water in the air is called acid rain. There are many chemicals in acid rain that are harmful to the environment.
