Question:
When rain is accompanied by a thunderstorm, the collected rain water will have a pH value
When rain is accompanied by a thunderstorm, the collected rain water will have a pH value
Updated On: Jul 5, 2022
- slightly lower than that of rain water without thunderstorm
- slightly higher than that when the thunderstorm is not there
- uninfluenced by occurrence of thunderstorm
- which depends on the amount of dust in air

The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
During thunderstorm, there is formation of $ NO $ which changes to $ N{{O}_{3}} $ and ultimately to $ HN{{O}_{3}} $ (acid-rain). $ {{N}_{2}}+{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}NO\xrightarrow{{{O}_{2}}}N{{O}_{2}} $ $ \xrightarrow{{}}{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}O}HN{{O}_{3}}(pH<7) $
