Which of the following is present in maximum amount in 'acid rain'?
- A \(\mathrm{HNO}_{3}\)
- B \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\)
- C HCI
- D \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\) (sulphuric acid) is present in maximu \(\mathrm{h}_{4}\) amount in 'acid rain'. Oxides of nitrogen and sulphur, released into the atmosphere from industries and automobiles thermal power plants, are the miain sources of acid rain. These oxides…
