What else can I help you with?
Are copper roofs affected by acid rain?
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.
Why is the rain gauge made of copper?
A rain gauge can be made of many things, but copper has some advantages. Copper fabricates easily and is inexpensive, along with being very resistant to corrosion. Copper is also poisonous to molds and slimy things that might want to grow on it.
What rock is not affected by acid rain?
granite and gabbro
Are the aquatic systems being affected by acid rain?
Of course they are. Everything in the environment is affected, actually. But focusing in on the aquatic systems I could give you more information. First of all they are GREATLY affected! The acid rain raises the pH levels of the water. As this happens it kills off many species of aquatic life. The first to go are normally the craw fish and clam species, then most fish die off. Depending on how quickly the acid rain gets to the aquatic system, some species may be capable of actually adapting to the rain acidic water. When it comes to humans, the aquatic systems that are affected WILL affect us! We have to drink that water sooner or later! I understand it's put through filters and cleaned but the acidic water will still affect us.
What region of the US is least affected by acid rain?
The southwestern region of the US, particularly states like Arizona and New Mexico, tend to be least affected by acid rain. This is due to lower levels of industrial activity producing pollutants that contribute to acid rain formation in these areas.
Are copper roofs affected by acid rain?
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.
Why does copper roofs stain and discolour when affected by acid rain?
the acid rain melts the colour off of the copper and is left with a stain
What happens to copper when it is affected by wind?

How is limestone affected by acid rain?
limestone is affected by acid rain because the bhgdnhfhndhn
Is sandstone affected by acid rain?
Sandstone could be affected by acid rain as it is chemical erosion.
Where do you get copper?
Either from the copper mines Or the Brazilian copper tree plant which are on the decline because of acidic rain
What happens when oxygen reacts with copper?
Copper oxider
What happens when copper is added to copper sulphate?
Nothing
What happens when you heat copper in oxygen?
copper oxide
Can rain damage copper chains?
Rain can damage copper chains over time. The color of copper chains will usually turn a sort of green color. You can get more information about this at the FAQ on the Rainchains website.
What problems happens when heating copper sulfide in air?
Heating copper sulfide in air can result in the copper sulfide being oxidized to form copper oxide and sulfur dioxide gas. This process may produce toxic sulfur dioxide fumes which can be harmful if inhaled. Additionally, the copper oxide formed may have different properties compared to copper sulfide, affecting its intended applications.
