HEY THERE HERE'S YOUR ANSWER

Non-metals react with oxygen in the air to produce non-metal oxides. Here are two examples for the non-metals carbon and sulphur. Non-metal oxidessuch as sulphur dioxide and nitrogenoxide are responsible for acid rain. They dissolve in the water in the clouds to form acidic solutions.

Note: Most nonmetal oxides are acidic, but not all. For example, carbon monoxide (CO) is not acidic.

The addition of water to a nonmetal oxide results in a compound that consists of a nonmetal atom surrounded by oxo (=O) and hydroxy (-OH) groups. For example,

SO3(l) + H2O(l) -----> H2SO4(l).
