These are lumped together as acidic precipitation.
Acid precipitation, also known as acid rain, is rainfall or any form of precipitation that contains high levels of sulfuric or nitric acids. This acidity is primarily caused by pollutants released into the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels, industrial activities, and transportation. Acid precipitation can harm aquatic ecosystems, damage forests, and corrode buildings and monuments.
Acid rain is caused by a high concentration of acids like sulfuric acid and nitric acid in rain, sleet, or snow. These acids are formed when air pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides interact with water vapor in the atmosphere.
Acid rain is precipitation that is unusually acidic due to the presence of air pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. It can harm aquatic life, forests, and buildings, as well as impact human health and ecosystems.
When pollution is released, it reacts with the water in the air. Acids, such as sulfuric acid and carbonic acid, are created due to this reaction, and when rain falls, these acids are mixed in with the rain.
Acid precipitation contains rain, sleet, or snow with a high concentration of acid that comes from sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil.
The 4 main precipitaions are rain, hail, sleek and snow
Sleet appears in the form of rain. Snow is white and does not appear like rain.
* Rain * Snow * Sleet * Hail * Freezing Rain
Actually they are the same; sleet is frozen rain, or ice pellets. This is not to be confused with FREEZING rain, which is rain that freezes near the ground level if it is colder than above. Sleet is already frozen when it hits.
In regards to weather, precipitation is rain,snow,sleet etc
Acid rain is rain, sleet, or snow that has a higher level of acidity due to pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These pollutants can react with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then fall back to the ground during precipitation.
Hail or sleet.
