Effects of excess carbon dioxide , Sulphur dioxide and Oxide of nitrogen in the atmosphere:
- Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are parts of smog and acid rain.
- Sulfur dioxide comes after burning of coal and oil. It has a pungent smell. One of the main source of SO2 emission are power plants.
- Oxide of Nitrogen is emitted from the burning of fossil fuels (like gasoline, petrol). The main sources of emission of NO2 are cars, trucks, and even power plants.
- Acid rain is made high up in the atmosphere Sulphur dioxide and oxide of nitrogen combine with sunlight and water. When this reaction is formed acid is formed and it falls to the ground in the way of acid rain.
- The effects of acid rain on life is very dangerous : It is harmful to aquatic life, plant life ,causes destruction to forests and vegetation, and corrodes statues and monuments.
