What is the main cause of acid rain? (2019)
  • Step 1: Understand that acid rain is a type of rain that is more acidic than normal rain.
  • Step 2: Identify the main pollutants that cause acid rain, which are sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx).
  • Step 3: Learn that these pollutants come from sources like factories, cars, and power plants.
  • Step 4: Know that when sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air, they can mix with water vapor in the atmosphere.
  • Step 5: Realize that this mixing creates acids, which then fall to the ground as acid rain.
