Answer 3

Acid rain comes from oxides that mix with water.  For example, when you burn coal, the pollutants in coal will turn into oxides...sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, carbon mono- or di-oxide, etc.  Those oxides usually combine with water to form things like sulfuric acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid which is what constitutes acid rain.
