How do you make artificial acid rain?

What reacts with nitrogen to make acid rain?

  • Which two things react which nitrogen to form acid rain?:) I heard it was Sulfur and Oxygen! Is that right?

  • Answer:

    Hi Silver, "Acid rain" is a broad term used to describe several ways that acids fall out of the atmosphere. A more precise term is acid deposition, which has two parts: wet and dry. Scientists discovered, and have confirmed, that sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are the primary causes of acid rain. Acid rain occurs when these gases react in the atmosphere with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form various acidic compounds.

Basically, acid rain is produced when the exhaust SO2 reacts with oxygen to form SO3 which is subsequently mixed up with the rain drops to make H2SO4. 2SO2 + O2 -> 2SO3 SO3 + H2O -> H2SO4 The same happens when the exhaust gas is either NO or NO2. The following reactions take place: 2NO + O2 -> 2NO2 2NO2 + H2O -> 2HNO3
