Question

1 Which of the following occurs during lightning?


(a)Nitrogen fixation (b) Acid rain (c)Greenhouse effect (d) None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

(c)Greenhouse effect

Explanation:

Part of what makes Earth so amenable is the naturally-arising greenhouse effect, which keeps the planet at a friendly 15 °C (59 °F) on average.The level of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere has been rising consistently for decades and traps extra heat near the surface of the Earth, causing temperatures to rise.

Answer 2

Out of the given phenomena, the one that most commonly occurs during lightning is Acid rain (Option B).

• Acid rain is the phenomenon of precipitation that occurs in which the rainfall has high quantities of sulpher and nitrogen oxides. These compounds are harmful to the skin as well as our respiratory system
• This process occurs during lightning as the sudden high temperature splits nitrogen and sulpher present in the atmosphere, leading to the formation of oxides
• Nitrogen fixation is the process in which molecular nitrogen is combined with hydrogen to form ammonia or other substances that are easier to act upon. It is seen in many plants and organic matter
• The greenhouse effect refers to the release of sulphur, carbon and other harmful emissions that prevent the escape of warm air and lead to global warming
