Acid Rain in Wisconsin
While pure rain is naturally slightly acidic, the higher level of acidity in acid rain makes it a threat to plant and aquatic life and to some manmade materials and structures. The slight natural acidity of pure rain is the result of carbon dioxide in the air dissolving in water to produce a weak carbonic acid solution. This natural acid in rainfall and snowmelt is partly responsible for the lo...
متن کاملAcid Rain
Pure water has a pH of 7.0 (neutral); however, natural, unpolluted rainwater actually has a pH of about 5.6 (acidic).[Recall from Experiment 1 that pH is a measure of the hydrogen ion (H+) concentration.] The acidity of rainwater comes from the natural presence of three substances (CO2, NO, and SO2) found in the troposphere (the lowest layer of the atmosphere). As is seen in Table I, carbon dio...
متن کاملEnvironment Agency - Acid rain
Once the acidic gases have been emitted to the atmosphere they can be transported over large distances. Hydrogen chloride is highly soluble and is deposited close to source areas, whereas sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are relatively insoluble (at atmospheric concentrations) and are therefore usually transported much further from the source before being deposited. For example, around 90% o...

متن کاملActivity of earthworm in Latosol under simulated acid rain stress.
Acid rain is still an issue of environmental concerns. This study investigated the impacts of simulated acid rain (SAR) upon earthworm activity from the Latosol (acidic red soil). Laboratory experiment was performed by leaching the soil columns grown with earthworms (Eisenia fetida) at the SAR pH levels ranged from 2.0 to 6.5 over a 34-day period. Results showed that earthworms tended to escape...
