Explanation
he environmental problem that is the result of chemical reactions in the atmosphere involving sulfur dioxide (SO2) is (A) Acid Rain.
When sulfur dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere from various sources like burning fossil fuels, industrial processes, and volcanic activities, it can undergo chemical reactions with other compounds such as oxygen and water vapor. These reactions form sulfuric acid (H2SO4), which can then be carried by precipitation and fall to the Earth's surface as acid rain.
Acid rain is a form of rainfall or any other form of precipitation that has an acidic pH level. It can have detrimental effects on ecosystems, including damage to forests, lakes, and aquatic life. Acid rain can also contribute to the corrosion of buildings, statues, and infrastructure, causing economic and aesthetic damage.
