False
Acid rain is produced when the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels releases sulfur dioxide and nitrous dioxide in the air. These oxides get mixed with the rain water to produce sulfuric acid and nitric acid respectively. Therefore we can say that Acid Rain is actually an indirect result rather than direct result of acid released by burning fossil fuels because burning produces oxides, not acids.
Answer: The provided statement is false.
Explanation:
An acid rain is occurred when the oxides of the sulphur and nitrogen get mixed with rain. The oxides of the sulphur and the nitrogen are sulphuric acid and nitric acid. It is released by burning fossil fuels.
Therefore, acid Rain is an indirect result rather than direct result of acid rain.
