Answer

B. sulfur dioxide released from a coal-fired power plant.

Explanation

Power plants release the majority of sulfur dioxide and much of the nitrogen oxides when they burn fossil fuels, such as coal, to produce electricity. In addition, the exhaust from cars, trucks, and buses releases nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide into the air. These pollutants cause acid rain.

Therefore, what is directly responsible for acid rain is:

B. sulfur dioxide released from a coal-fired power plant.

Give the number of particles of each element in NH3, ammonia.
Y_Kistochka [10]
You'll need Avogadro's number for this. NH3 has 1 Nitrogen and 2 Hydrogen. You'll multiply the molar mass of each times Avogadro's number. So:

molar mass N x 6.022x10^23 x 1 Nitrogen= total A

Molar mass H x 6.022x10^23 x 2 Hydrogen= total B

Add total A+B = your answer

I don't have a calculator or periodic table but if you plug in the numbers you'll get your answer. Hope it helps.
