Acid Rain

Acid rain can have strange effects on rocks, trees, and man-made structures. It contains of many molecules such as carbon dioxide. It also causes an uprise in environmental control groups. The researcher will find out exactly what affects acid rain has and if Dublin Ca. has acid rain. Maybe Dublin doesn’t have unusually high acid rain. Hopefully acid rain just dissolves things faster than water.

Acid rain can happen naturally or artificially. Acid rain is made of nitric and sulfuric acids. Acid rain is a broad term for a mixture of wet and dry deposition from the atmosphere containing of nitric and sulfuric acids. Most acid rain is from sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides that result from fossil fuel combustion or the process of burning (which is turning combustable things into oxides). This often comes from power generation. These gases can travel up to hundreds of miles through the atmosphere, where they are mixed with the water vapor in the air which comes down as acid rain. Acid rain is also known as wet deposition. Dry deposition is formed when acids get incorporated with du...
