How does chlorofluorocarbon and acid rain affect the temperate deciduous forest?
Acid rain can often cause the soil acidity to higher, meaning only certain plans can grow and also plants are weakened by the rain.
Limestone an underlying material for many soils dissolves and corrodes when exposed to high concentrations of hydrogen ions How is this information important in understanding the effects of acid pr?
Soil acidity may increase over time with exposure to more acidic acid rain.
How does acid rain affect peoples lives?
* acid rain damages crops because it increases the acidity of soil. * acid rain corrodes buildings and structures especially those made of marble such as taj mahal. * acid rain causes acidification of water in the lakes and rivers which causes the destruction of living things in water.
Does antacid effect soil that has been polluted by acid rain?
Soils which have high levels of carbonates, a natural type of antacid, can resist acid rain better than other types of soil. Soils which have become acidic are often treated with lime or other carbonates to increase the pH
How does soil become acidic?
fertilisers and acid rain
How do you neutralise acid rain in soil?
Add a base/alkali such as calcium carbonate (limestone) to the soil which will neutralise the acidity.
'why spread lime on newly ploughed fields'?
To reduce the acidity of the soil and to protect against acid rain
How does chlorofluorocarbon and acid rain affect the temperate deciduous forest?
Acid rain can often cause the soil acidity to higher, meaning only certain plans can grow and also plants are weakened by the rain.
What does an alkali fertilizer do to an acid soil?
As in all acid-base (alkali) reactions, it will reduce the acidity of the soil and, if there is an excess of base to acid, it can make the soil become alkaline. The soil will be less acidic if base is less than acidity, become neutral (if base = acidity), or become alkaline if base is greater than acidity.
What are two things that may affect soil?
what about soil are you asking about? In terms of texture earthworms and organic matter can affect it. In terms of acidity soil particle size and acid rain can affect it.

Soil acidity may increase over time with exposure to more acidic acid rain.
When acid precipitation cause the acidity of soil to increase it is called?
You go milk a cow and this will happen. As you milk the cow you will see that the acid precipertation will increase because of the friction of the rubbing with your hands and cows spouts.
Is acid rain a problem for all plant species?
no not always because it causes acid levels in the soil to rise and cause most plants who are not adapted to the soil acidity to die but there are a few plants that can survive in those conditions
What are the consequences for soil given exposure to rain?
because rain has acid in it it makes the soil have acid in it
Which diseases are caused by acid rain?
acid rain cause decoloration of sky scrappers, statues, monuments etc. It corrodes bridges, disturb the pH balance in soil, increase acdity of water.
