The Acid Rain Problem. Carbon dioxide in the air can dissolve in rain water to form carbonic acid, H 2 CO 3. CO 2 + H 2 O H 2 CO 3. Carbonic acid is a weak acid. It partially ionises to form hydrogen ions. H 2 CO 3 H + + HCO 3 -. The hydrogen ions from carbonic acid give natural rain water a slightly acid pH value of 5.6.
Scientists discovered, and have confirmed, that sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are the primary causes of acid rain. In the US, About 2/3 of all SO2 and 1/4 of all NOx comes from electric power generation that relies on burning fossil fuels like coal.cid rain is a broad term used to describe several ways that acids fall out of the atmosphere. A more precise term is acid deposition, which has two parts: wet and dry.
