STB-2.H—Describe acid deposition question 1
[Maximum number: 1]
Respond to parts A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.
Acid rain is another air pollutant linked to motor vehicles. Over the past few years, there
has been an increase in the number of people working from home, so fewer people are
commuting to work in their personal vehicles.
Explain how a decrease in the number of people commuting to work in their personal
vehicles could lead to a reduction in acid rain.
| C | Explain how a decrease in the number of people commuting to work in their personal vehicles could lead to a reduction in acid rain. Examples of acceptable responses may include the following: - (A decrease in commuting) would result in lower nitrogen oxide/sulfur oxide emissions from cars/vehicles. - (A decrease in commuting) would lead to less nitric acid/sulfuric acid in the atmosphere. | Point 03 |
