Acid Rain

People can be harmed by reheating in toxins, chemicals, and pollutants, from either dry deposits of this acid rain, or chemicals can be released through vapor/liquid form. This can range from causing chest illnesses, breathing problems, birth defects, and other unusual diseases more and more commonly being revealed as time progresses. Some birth defects include,…

The damaging effects of acid rain on society is becoming overwhelmed with great amounts of pollution from cars, factories and an large amounts of garbage. The immense amounts of sulphur dioxide put into the air causes high levels of acid in the atmosphere. When this sulphuric acid is absorbed into moisture in the air, then…

What is acid rain? Acid rain is the term for pollution caused when sulfur and nitrogen dioxides combine with atmospheric moisture. The term ‘acid rain’ is slightly misleading, and would be more accurate if deemed ‘enhanced acid rain’, as rain occurs acidic naturally. Acidity is measured on what is know as the pH scale. Fourteen…

Our environment has been suffering from many problems that have plaguedearth for years. These problems cannot be ignored or it might havecatastrophic results on our environment. Acid rain is a wide spread termused to describe all forms of acid precipitation, rain snow and dust. Acidrain is a serious problem with disastrous effects and this problem…

To stimulate the effect of acid rain on plant life, students to set up a lab experiment to compare the effect of varying levels of acidity on plant seed germination. Hypothesis: as the pH of water decreases, the number of seeds germinated will reduce. Variables Units: Dependent variables The number of seeds germinated Independent variables…

Introduction Acid rain is precipitation that contains higher levels of nitric and sulfuric acids. This type of rain occurs as a result of pollution caused by human activities, such as factories, power plants, and cars. The main pollutants that contribute to the formation of acid rain are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2). When…
