Sulphuric Acid
Sulphuric acid is a strong acid that is industrially used to refine petroleum and to produce
explosives and fertilizers. Sulphuric acid also contributes to the problem of acid rain. When
sulphur dioxide, a waste gas of various industries, is released into the air, it combines with water
in the air to form sulphuric acid. This is chemically altered to acid rain. By reducing the amount
of sulphur dioxide released into the air, the impact of acid rain can be lessened.
