Acid Rain Lab #1 Chem. 1 20 February 2016 Concordia University Texas Angelina Luna angelinaluna97@yahoo.com Chem 1- Sect C Acid Rain Lab #1 Professor Koeck Abstract In this experiment our main objective was to create three gaseous oxides CO₂‚ SO₂ and NO₂ by using data that was collected using a pH sensor which was connected to a laptop with LoggerPro and Vernier. We created the gases by bubbling each gas into the water to create the three acidic solutions we were looking for. Once that

Effects of Acid Rain Background Information Acid rain is when there is a mix of wet and dry deposited material in the atmosphere that have higher levels of nitric and sulfuring acid. These chemicals formed can be from natural causes‚ like volcanoes and the decay of vegetation‚ or man made causes like fossil fuel combustion. Acid rain can be measured using the pH scale‚ and will always be on the lower end of the spectrum because of its acidity. Water has a pH of 7‚ but the acidity of normal rain tends

How Acid Rain Affects Organisms in Aquatic Biomes Through the advancement of technology‚ the issue of the air surrounding the earth might have been one of the most often matters to be brought up and discussed among scientists and engineers. Acid rain is one of the more serious environmental problems and it is closely related to the air pollution. Nowadays‚ it has affected large part of US‚ Europe and Canada. People start to be concerned about acid rain since it is getting worse in the passed

Investigate the Effect of Acid Rain on Building Materials Question: What is the effect of 6M sulfuric acid (H2SO4) on the corrosion rate of the 3 grams of steel as the amount (number of sprays) of sulfuric acid increases? Variables: Independent variable: the number of sprays of 6M sulfuric acid (0‚ 5‚ 10‚ 15‚ 20‚ 25 times) to observe its effect on the corrosion rate. Each spray will contain about 10mL. Dependent variable: The corrosion rate. It will be calculated by measuring the mass of steel

Acid Rain Introduction: Titrations are often recorded on graphs called titration curves‚ which generally contain the volume of the titrant as the independent variable and the pH of the solution as the dependent variable (because it changes depending on the composition of the two solutions). The equivalence point on the graph is where all of the starting solution (usually an acid) has been neutralized by the titrant (usually a base). One can easily find the pKa of the monoprotic acid by finding

How does acid precipitation affect marble and limestone buildings? Acid rain is a type of precipitation that is characterised by containing contaminating substances such as sulphuric and nitric acid‚ both of which have harmful effects on the environment. Both marble and limestone are extremely vulnerable to the damages done by acid rain due to their components. These materials contain calcite‚ a substance that easily reacts and dissolves with acid. Acid rain is the cause of the destruction of many

Rain Have you ever been barefoot in the rain? Well if you haven’t it is the most amazing feeling. Its okay to let the mud ooze between your toes cause the cold rain will just wash it away. The rain is my favorite weather. I love how it smells‚ feels‚ sounds‚ tastes‚ and looks. I like to close my eyes and feel every little rain drop hit down on the top of my head. I like to take a deep breath and smell the nature float in the air all around me. It’s so relaxing to hear the ticking sound of the

Introduction to rain Rain is liquid water in the form of droplets that have condensed fromatmospheric water vapor and then precipitated—that is‚ become heavy enough to fall under gravity. Rain is a major component of the water cycleand is responsible for depositing most of the fresh water on the Earth. It provides suitable conditions for many types of ecosystem‚ as well as water for hydroelectric power plants and crop irrigation. The major cause of rain production is moisture moving along three-dimensional
