Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is: c. acid rain

Explanation:

Acid rain refers to the precipitation that has an acidic pH. This type of precipitation is harmful as it has high hydrogen ion concentration.

The harmful emissions such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, that are present in the Earth's atmosphere and transported by the air and wind, react with the water molecules during the precipitation to produce acidic rain.
