Sulphur (IV) oxide dissolves in rain water forming acid rain which lowers soil pH leading in poor crop yield and also causing leaching of mineral.
Causes respiratory diseases e.g bronchitis and pneumonia since it slows down cilia activities causing irritation.
Corrodes metals e.g. iron, alluminium, and also contaminating drinking water as it contains toxic materials.
Affect gaseous exchange structures
