Toppr Admin · Accepted Answer

Acid rain or acid deposition is a term that means any form of precipitation in the form of acid components- The main chemicals in air pollution that creates acid rain are sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide- Acid rains forms high in clouds where the sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides reacts with water- oxygen- and oxidants-

A. Sulphur dioxide	1. Combustion of fossil fuels in vehicles
B. Oxides of nitrogen	2. Construction sites
C. Carbon monoxide	3. Petroleum refining
D. Particulate matter	4. Incomplete combustion of fossil fuel
