A. What chemicals are involved in the formation of acid rain? What are the sources of these chemicals? (2 points)

Chemistry

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The to main chemicals that lead to acid rain are SOx and NOx. The major source of oxides of sulphur are power plants while the major source of oxides of nitrogen is the combustion of fossil fuels.

B. There are two types of acid rain; wet and dry. Wet type acid rain occurs when NOx and SOx combine with water vapour in the atmosphere and fall as precipitation while in dry type, wind deposits these acidic gases/matter on the surfaces of buildings, cars, trees etc. Rain water washes off these acidic deposits and the runoff is more acidic than the rain water.

C. Natural rain water has a pH of about 5.5 due to the fact that water dissolve CO2 in the atmosphere. This means that natural rain water is also slightly acidic. Rain water that dissolves SOx or NOx is often more acidic than these hence the term 'enhanced acid rain' may be used.

Again, since precipitation could be solid or liquid, the term 'acid deposition' is better.

The condensed structural formula for 2,2,3-trimethylbutane is _____. ch3c(ch3)2ch(ch3)2 ch3ch2ch(ch3)c(ch3)3 ch3c(ch3)2c(ch3)3 c
Mrac [35]
The chemical structure of 2,2,3-trimethylbutane is shown as attached document. In a condensed structural formula, a branched chain is shown in bracket (). 

So according to the chemical structure, the correct condensed structural formula for this molecule is CH3C(CH3)CH(CH3)2

Which part of an object's rate of change best defines acceleration?
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

The change of velocity rate it's the definition of acceleration.

While increasing or decreasing velocity, it means that an acceleration it's happening.

Using some math:

a=\frac{dv}{dt}

This can be read as "the acceleration it's equal to te variation of velocity with respect to time"
