In industrial areas, acidic gases such as sulfur dioxide is emitted to the atmosphere. When it rains, the gaseous acids dissolve in the raindrops, and such rains are known as acid rains.
All rain water is slightly acidic.
Ordinary rain is very slightly acidic because of dissolved gases in the air, mostly carbon dioxide (carbonic acid). However, rain that falls through industrial smoke or smog can become harmfully acidic (acid rain) by dissolving nitrides and sulfur.

Sulpur Dioxide is the main chemical in acid rain. The Sulphur contained in coal, (which is burnt for industrial purposes) is released into the atmoshpere as Sulphur Dioxide. The Sulphur dioxide can be blown by the wind and reacts with water (clouds) to form Acid Rain.
Acid rain is defined as precipitation that is acidic. This is due to the condensation of sulfur dioxide and other volatile gases released by industrial and other human activities with clouds. When they come down they are observed as precipitations of acidic nature.
Atmospheric water droplets can absorb gases and dust from the atmosphere. Natural carbon dioxide from the atmosphere turns into carbonic acid, a mild acid, when it dissolves in water. This gives all rain water a slight amount of acidity. In some industrial areas, H2S gas from fossil fuels can oxidize into sulfuric acid and make rain even more acidic, but all rain is mildly acidic from C02.
All rain water is slightly acidic.
This is an acidic rain.
Acid rain occurs when rain water falls through layers of industrial pollution. Acidic pollution particles dissolves into the rain drops.
It affects because it causes Acidic rain and acidic rain contaminate the water.
One cause of acidic ground water is polluted rain water, which can be acidic.
The pollutants in air make rain water acidic. Rain water, containing acid reaches everywhere .
Rain is natrually acidic due to carbon dioxide, which react with water to form carbonic acid. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide from industrial process can also react to form sulfuric and nitric acids, which can make rain abnormally acidic.
Rain water is generally acidic
no,because the dirt stays on the ground while the water vapor goes up (but don't drink rain water)
Acid rain is the environmental problem in industrial areas.
Acid rain is caused by rain that comes in contact with contaminents, such as industrial exausts and becomes acidic.
