This research paper: This 8 page report discusses the phenomena of acid raid. It has been a research topic for, literally, more than a century and therefore offers a wide variety of information sources for the student to choose between in presenting his or her argument about acid rain. That variety of sources allows any person researching the topic to discover conflicting and contrasting opinions and, in the process, reach their own conclusions. “Acidic deposition,” or acid rain as it is commonly known, occurs when emissions of sulfur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen react in the atmosphere with water, oxygen, and oxidants to form various acidic compounds. This mixture forms a mild solution of sulfuric acid and nitric acid. Sunlight increases the rate of most of these reactions. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
