- Question
Acid Precipitation is caused by a mix of
Options- A. Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Saline
- B. Water, Soil, and Air
- C. Respiration, Carbonic Acids, and Seawater
- D. Sulfur Dioxide, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxides
- Correct Answer
- Sulfur Dioxide, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxides
ExplanationAcid Precipitation or Acid rain is caused by a mix of Sulfur Dioxide, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxides.
A Chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as Acid Rains.

Correct Answer: 4
Correct Answer: Lactic acid
Correct Answer: Element
Explanation:
The simplest form of matter that has a unique set of properties and is cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means is called an Element.
An Atom is the simplest form of an element.
The simplest form of some elements is a Molecule. When an element consists of two identical atoms it is called a diatomic molecule.
A substance that contains two or more elements chemically combined in a fixed proportion is called a Compound.
Correct Answer: The atoms share or transfer electrons
Explanation:
All chemistry is based on sharing electrons. A chemical bond forms when two atoms transfer or share outer electrons to complete their outer shells.
Correct Answer: 273 K
Explanation:
K is degree kelvin
Zero K corresponds to -273 K = C + 273
The freezing point of water being 0 C, on the kelvin scale it is 0 C + 273 K
Correct Answer: Ar
Explanation:
Argon is most the most abundant Rare Gas in the atmosphere. Its elemental symbol is Ar.
Correct Answer: 2, 2, 2-Trichloroethanol
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Mercury
Correct Answer: H and Br
Explanation:
Only H and Br form Polar Covalent Bond.
Covalent bonding:
Covalent bonding occurs when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. Atoms will covalently bond with other atoms in order to gain more stability, which is gained by forming a full electron shell. By sharing their outer most (valence) electrons, atoms can fill up their outer electron shell and gain stability.
1. Polar Covalent Bond
2. Nonpolar Covalent Bond
1. Polar Covalent Bond:
A Polar Covalent Bond is created when the shared electrons between atoms are not equally shared. This occurs when one atom has a higher electronegativity than the atom it is sharing with. The atom with the higher electronegativity will have a stronger pull for electrons (Similiar to a Tug-O-War game, whoever is stronger usually wins). As a result, the shared electrons will be closer to the atom with the higher electronegativity, making it unequally shared.
2. Nonpolar Covalent Bond:
A Nonpolar Covalent Bond is created when atoms share their electrons equally. This usually occurs when two atoms have similar or the same electron affinity. The closer the values of their electron affinity, the stronger the attraction. This occurs in gas molecules; also known as diatomic elements. Nonpolar covalent bonds have a similar concept as polar covalent bonds; the atom with the higher electronegativity will draw away the electron from the weaker one.
Here H and H and N and N form Non-polar covalent bonds. Na and Br form the ionic bond.
Correct Answer: 'M' is used as a unit of molarity and stands for mole per litre ie, number of moles of solute per liter of solution
