Summary of the passege:
Acid rain is caused by air pollution. When coal, oil and petrol are burnt the
smoke given off contains the gases like sulphur di oxide and nitrogen di oxide. These gases escape into the
atmosphere when they dissolve into water droplets to form weak acids. These acids then fall in the ground in
rain, snow or sleet. Acid rain is harmful to plants and animals. It kills fish in lakes. Vast areas of forest are dying
because of it. While in many European cities statues and stone building are being eaten away by the acid. It
corrodes metal work also. Acid rain in the soil washes away important plat food. It changes certain metals,
particularly aluminium in the soil into a poisonous form. It damages the tree roots and affects the gills of fish
and kills them

Answer:
Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.
