When mixed with water this mineral can dissolve calcium in rock?
Any acid or acid forming material: nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon dioxide, acetic acid, phosphoric acid, etc.
Why is nitrogen oxides harmful?
They are harmful because they react with water too make acid rain
What is atmospheric fixation?
Atmospheric Fixation:the enormous energy of lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and enables their atoms to combine with oxygen in the air forming nitrogen oxides. These dissolve in rain, forming nitrates, that are carried to the earth. Atmospheric nitrogen fixation probably contributes some 5– 8% of the total nitrogen fixed.
What are harmful effects of nitrogen oxides?
Nitrogen Oxides are reactive. General name NOx refer to NO and NO2. They react and cause respiratory system damage.Example reaction of NO2 is as follow.2 NO2 + H2O → HNO2 + HNO3Nitric acid and nitrous acid are formed with presence of moisture in air and in the lungs. This is highly corrosive to the pulmonary system in the body.
What 2 pollutants react with water to produce acid rain?
sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides
What gases react to make nitrogen oxides?
Nitrogen and oxygen.
Does all oxides dissolve in water?
Yes. All oxides dissolve in water..
What changes water's pH level in reference to precipitation?
Oxides of sulphur and nitrogen in the atmosphere dissolve in the precipitation making it more acid.
What is the formation of oxides of nitrogen and eventually nitrates as nitrogen fixing?
Reactions for the formation of oxides of nitrogen and nitrates as nitrogen fixing
When mixed with water this mineral can dissolve calcium in rock?
Any acid or acid forming material: nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon dioxide, acetic acid, phosphoric acid, etc.
How does acid precipitaion form?
Sulfur or Nitrogen Oxides in the atmosphere (often from pollution, but sometimes from volcanos) dissolve in rain, forming Sulfuric or Nitric Acids.
How rainwater damages statue?
Acid rain is what causes damage, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides and carbon oxides (carbon dioxide) react and dissolve in the water droplets of clouds, forming acids like sulfuric (H2SO4) acid carbonic (H2CO3) acid and nitric acid (HNO3).
What gas can make acid rain?
It is caused by the emission of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere.
Why is nitrogen oxides harmful?
They are harmful because they react with water too make acid rain
What is the term for damaging precipitation caused by oxides of sulfur and nitrogen?
Acid rain is the term for damaging preciptation caused by oxides of sulfur and nitrogen.
What substance is mixed with rain to make acid rain?
Acid rain is formed when moisture in the atmosphere combines with nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides to make nitric acid and sulfuric acid respectively.
Could or precipitation containing pollutants such as oxides of sulfur and nitrogen to make them have a lower pH?
air polution
