Many pesticides have a pH range between 4 and 7. Afarmer uses a pesticide spray with a pH of 5.5, which is about the same as precipitation. What is the MOST LIKELY effect of excess pesticides on the environment? A. The excess pesticides can enter groundwater by runoff and reduce the quality of the water. The excess pesticides can evaporate into the atmosphere and change the pH of B. precipitation. C. The excess pesticides can enter groundwater by seepage and maintain the same quality of water. The excess pesticides can evaporate into theatmosphere and increase the amount of precipitation.

Answer 1

A. The excess pesticides can enter groundwater by runoff and reduce the quality of the water.

Answer 2

Excess pesticides can enter groundwater through runoff or seepage, potentially reducing water quality. The pH similarity to precipitation is less relevant than the chemical composition and environmental impact of the pesticides.
