Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air.
Human activities are the main cause of acid rain. Over the past few decades, humans have released so many different chemicals into the air that they have changed the mix of gases in the atmosphere. Power plants release the majority of sulfur dioxide and much of the nitrogen oxides when they burn fossil fuels, such as coal, to produce electricity. In addition, the exhaust from cars, trucks, and buses releases nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide into the air. These pollutants cause acid rain.
car and factory fumes
acid rain is the result of air pollution
Acid rain is the result of chemical reactions in the atmosphere.
yes the burning of fossil fuels can result in acid rain
acid rain
acid rain
Acid rain forms when nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides combine with water in the air to form nitric acid and sulfuric acid.
The acid rain causes erosion and weathering of the limestone.Acid rain attacks and dissolves Limestone .As a result of that , carbon dioxide gas is evolved
Deposition of Sulfur into Our Atmosphere is where most of the Acid Rain originates.
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.
acid rain
Acid rain is any rain with a high elevation of hydrogen ions. Acid rain is caused with sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide mix with the water molecules in the atmosphere that cause rain.
No. Acid rain is the result of nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides put into the atmosphere by volcanoes and the burning of fossil fuels.
