(c) What is acid rain? State its impact on the environment

​

Answer 1

Explanation:

hi

The ecological effects of acid rain are most clearly seen in aquatic environments, such as streams, lakes, and marshes where it can be harmful to fish and other wildlife. As it flows through the soil, acidic rain water can leach aluminum from soil clay particles and then flow into streams and lakes.

Answer:

NOTE : NOT COPIED FROM GOOGLE, WRITTEN WITH MY OWN KNOWLEDGE.

Many poisonous gases can dissolve in water except a few others. So, the poisonous gases from the factories mix into air and forms clouds. And when these clouds become heavy and it starts raining, the acids mixed in the clouds also come down as rain. The first rain is slightly acidic. Then the rain becomes almost neutral.

Acid rain makes the land infertile for agriculture and destroys many buildings. That is why, in Agra, Taj Mahal's color is turning yellow from white as marble reacts with acids and changes color. Also to preserve the beauty and color of the Tan Mahal, it is covered with a cloth to prevent damage from acid rain.

Hope it helps!
