The actual burning of the coal contributes more to global warming than the mining itself.
Yes, smoke from factories can contribute to the formation of acid rain. When sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the smoke combine with water vapor in the atmosphere, they form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, leading to acid rain. This acid rain can harm ecosystems, damage buildings, and affect water quality.
Yes, copper roofs can be affected by acid rain. Acid rain can cause corrosion and pitting on copper surfaces, leading to a greenish patina forming on the roof over time. Regular maintenance and protective coatings can help mitigate the effects of acid rain on copper roofs.
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas is brown and can cause acid rain when it reacts with water in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid. This can lead to environmental damage and impact human health.
Pollution in the air, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, mixes with water vapor to form acid rain. When these pollutants in the atmosphere react with rainwater, they create acidic compounds like sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then fall to the ground as acid rain.
"acid rain" is a corrosive acid that is built up from fumes given off by most commercial cars in crowded cities... that if built up over time cause a precipitation of rain that corrodes most surfaces... the acid could be either sulfuric or nitric acid
Mining does not create acid rain. Smelting of mined ores (a different process entirely) creates acid rain when sulfur dioxide is releases, Mining can cause acid mine drainage a bacterial impact of bacteria such as thiobacillus thioxidans on sulfates and sulfides.
Coal mining and the burning of coal can contribute to acid rain, but they do so indirectly. When coal is burned in power stations, it releases sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) into the atmosphere. These pollutants can react with water vapor and other chemicals to form sulfuric and nitric acids, leading to acid rain. Therefore, while mining itself doesn't directly cause acid rain, the combustion of coal does play a significant role in its formation.
the burning of fossil fuels can cause smog and acid rain
There are several things that cause erosion, and acid rain is one of them.
No. Acid rain is polluted rainfall.
Yes we do cause acid rain,we do by littering and doing bad stuff to the environment
El Niño is a climate pattern that results from the interaction between the atmosphere and the ocean, leading to warm ocean temperatures in the Pacific. Acid rain, on the other hand, is caused by pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide mixing with water in the atmosphere. El Niño does not directly cause acid rain, although it can influence weather patterns that may affect the distribution of pollutants that contribute to acid rain.
All countries cause acid rain. The more fossil fuels they use and the more industries they have, the more acid rain they create.
Acid rain is the biggest cause. Acid rain forms when pollutants from factory smoke stacks mixes with rain clouds then the chemicals and the rain combine and acid rain is formed. Hope this helps :)
it is caused bye photochemical smog and acid rain
Acid rain is caused by sulfur and nitrogen oxides.
because nz is a pie, we dont have acid rain, cause pies are vicious to acid rain and they kill acid rain.
