A neutrino is an electrically neutral, weakly interacting subatomic particle. All neutrinos have mass, but they are impossible to measure since they are so small.

What is acid weathering?

Acid does indeed cause weathering. It is a common form of chemical weathering, and is sometimes influenced by humans. It is particularly devastating to basic rocks like limestone which neutralise the acid rain, but at the expense of its own volume, as after the neutralisation, the salt is often washed away and the limestone is consequently worn away.


When a rock is exposed to chemical weathering what does it do?

The rock is broken down so it visibly recedes. This may be because the cement holding it together is broken down, or else because the minerals of which the rock is mainly composed are dissolved. Alternatively, rocks are broken down through acid rainfall, which is neutralised by limestone and other basic rocks, but at the expense of the rock itself, which then changes in composition and is easily removed.


What could you put on some metal letters to protect them from acid rain?

Metals are usually protected from corrosion by encasing them in an impervious material or connecting them to a sacrificial anode which is more reactive metal which will corrode first. Some paints have such materials in them (such as zinc) which oxidize first.


Is geothermal energy available almost everywhere?

Geothermal energy is available everywhere - with there being varying levels of difficulty and expense in making use of it. By this I mean that besides doing it near tectonic plates, or doing some very expensive drilling, it is still impractical in many areas. However, technology keeps advancing, and we can already make more use of it than in the past. One day we may draw quite heavily upon it. And will no doubt need to!
