Sulphur dioxide (SO2) and Nitrogen oxides (NOx).<\/p>\n<p>Acid rain is a form of precipitation that is acidic, meaning that it has a pH of less than 7. It is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere, which react with water vapor and oxygen to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid. These acids then fall to the Earth as rain, snow, sleet, or fog.<\/p>\n<p>Sulfur dioxide is a gas that is released into the atmosphere when fossil fuels such as coal and oil are burned.
