1.) List a few of the gases which lead to acid rain.
sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides
2.) What is the source of much of the acid rain producing gases in Pennsylvania?
The source of most of the gases that create acid rain are high-sulfur coal burned in power plants and cars.
3.) Briefly explain how acid rain forms.
It forms when sulfur dioxides and nitrogen oxides that are in the atmosphere combine together with water and they form sulfuric acid and nitric acid. When you mix this with rain water they fall to the earth as rain water.
