Question
what forms when sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide combine with water vapor in the air? * 5 points
global warming
acid rain
ozone layer
uv radiation
how does acid rain affect soil? * 5 points
it adds calcium to the soil
it increases soil fertility
it washes calcium and other nutrients from the soil
it has no effect on soil composition
what is global warming? * 5 points
a decrease in atmospheric carbon dioxide
a temperature rise caused by an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide
the depletion of the ozone layer
the warming of ocean currents
- For the first question: Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides react with water vapor, oxygen, and other chemicals in the atmosphere to form acidic compounds that fall as acid rain. Global warming is linked to greenhouse gases, the ozone layer is related to ozone-depleting substances, and UV radiation is a type of solar radiation.
- For the second question: Acid rain is acidic, so it leaches ( washes away) essential nutrients like calcium from soil, rather than adding nutrients or increasing fertility.
- For the third question: Global warming refers to the long-term rise in Earth's average temperature, primarily driven by increased levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It is distinct from ozone layer depletion or ocean current warming, and it is not caused by decreased carbon dioxide.
