QUESTIONS

1. Assuming that a relationship exists among corrosion, population, and sulfur dioxide, why
might one expect this interdependence?
2. Compare the solubilities in water of calcium carbonate, calcium sulfite, calcium sulfate,
magnesium sulfate, and dolomite.
3. Describe possible mechanisms for the deterioration of marble statuary.
4. Explain why soiling and corrosion are hidden costs of air pollution.
5. Describe possible preventive actions to limit deterioration of books and other print material
in libraries.
6. Explain the role of moisture in corrosion of materials.
7. In your location, determine whether sulfur dioxide, ozone, or particulate matter contributes
to soiling or corrosion problems.
8. Describe why some types of synthetic rubber are less susceptible to ozone attack than
natural rubber.
