The constituent of polluted air which contributes in producing acid rain is B. Sulphur dioxide.
Explanation:
- Sulfur is a major air contaminant which is produced from chemical and metal factories.
- When the sulfur is emitted, it reacts with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide.

- When the cloud attains saturation, the sulfuric acid falls as rain which is acid rain.
- Acid rain has harmful effect in all the living and non-living things in the earth.
