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.
Too much greenhouse effect: The atmosphere of Venus, like Mars, is nearly all carbon dioxide. But Venus has about 300 times as much carbon dioxide in its atmosphere as Earth and Mars do, producing a runaway greenhouse effect and a surface temperature hot enough to melt lead.
