Question

The pH value of rain water of an area is 5.2 . Can you consider this as acid rain? What happens to aquatic animals when this water flows to river?​

Answer 1

Acid rain is a rain that is acidic, meaning it has very low pH. When sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air, they react with water and oxygen and produces sulfuric and nitric acids. These acids then mix with water and result in acid rain. Normal rain water is slightly acidic with a pH range of 5-6. When the pH level of rain water falls below this range, it becomes acid rain. It can have harmful effects on plants, aquatic animals and infrastructure.

Answer 2

Answer:

. As we knew, The pH value of rain water of an area is 5.2 then it's considered as acid rain. When acid rain enters into river then it effects the aquatic animals, it may cause sever conditions up to the death of that organisms. Because, animals are not able to live in acid medium
