What Causes Acid Rain? {2} {2} Acid rain caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere‚ where they mix and react with water‚ oxygen‚ and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants‚ known as acid rain.{2} Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides dissolve very easily in water and can be carried very far by wind. As a result‚ the two compounds can travel long distances where

Acid rain is a rain or any other form of precipitation that is unusually acidic‚ i.e. elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). It can have harmful effects on plants‚ aquatic animals‚ and infrastructure through the process of wet deposition. Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids. Governments have made efforts since the 1970s to reduce the release of sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere with positive

petri dish grew so well it started to lift the lid off the dish. The results from the Acid Rain (50% vinegar solution) did not allow any radish seeds to germinate. There were never signs of seed germination while observing the seeds over a three week period. In the petri dish labeled Acid Rain‚ 0 out of 10 seeds sprouted into plant growth as seen in Figure 5.2. The results from the effects of acid rain are compared on Figures 5.1 and 5.2.
