The number of 1000lb marble statues damaged by acid rain for the given condition is
Explanation of Solution
Acid rain: It is made up of water droplets that are unusually acidic because of atmospheric pollution, particularly the excessive amounts of sulfur and nitrogen released by cars and industrial processes.
Sulfur oxides liberated will react with oxygen in the atmosphere results the formation of sulfur trioxide which is combined with water to form sulfuric acid. Chemical reaction equation for this process can be represented as,
In the given reaction, Sulfur oxides liberated will react with oxygen in the atmosphere results the formation of sulfur trioxide which is combined with water to form sulfuric acid.
The chemical equation for this reaction is,
When
Balanced chemical equation of a reaction is written according to law of conservation of mass.
Therefore,
The total number of each atoms in the reactant side should equal to the total number of each atoms in the product side.
So, in order to balance a chemical equation, the coefficients of compounds or atoms are needed to be changed in such a way that total number of each atoms in the reactant side and the total number of each atoms in the product side is to become equal.
Hence,
The above chemical equation is a balanced chemical equation.
Therefore,
The balanced equations for the given reactions are,

Molecular mass of
The moles of
The number of moles of
The number of statues damaged by
This value shows that any objects/statues made of marble are susceptible to attack by acid rain.
