What is the name of a gas which dissolves in rain water to make sulphuric acid?
“The primary causes of acid rain are sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These chemicals are released by certain industrial processes. Once the tiny pollutant molecules have entered the atmosphere, they can travel for thousands of miles. Eventually, the particles will combine with other compounds to produce new, often harmful, chemicals. These harmful chemicals mixes with water droplets in the atmosphere and comes down to the earth in the form of acidic, rain, snow, hail, fog, frost, or dew. Once it reaches the ground, the acidity in the substance can harm and even destroy both natural ecosystems and man-made products, such as car finishes.
