Theoretical Investigation of Temperature Effect on the Formation of Sulphuric Acid Rain
Abstract
The
acid rain is a major problem for life and environment. Mainly, acid rain
consists from sulfuric acid and nitric acid. There are five successive reaction
for the formation of sulfuric acid. All reactions have been investigated
experimentally but some properties of them have not been defined clearly. In this
study, mechanisms of each reaction were predicted. The temperature effect on activation
energy, equilibrium constant and rate constant were investigated for each
reaction. The effect of global warming on the formation of sulphuric acid rain
was discussed.
