No. Even when CO dissolves in rain, it does not form any acid.

Is there any metal or gas which absorbs carbon dioxide and nitrogen gas?
Mother nature has a way of absorbing carbon dioxide. It's called rain. Rain water combines with carbon dioxide to make carbolic acid. The carbolic acid falls to the earth and combines with rock and dirt to make a soft rock. People down wind of large smokestacks have a problem with the acid rain. Too much acid rain will kill trees. Planet earth does not get enough rain to remove the increasing amounts of carbon dioxide we are putting into the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide we are making adds to the problem of global warming. 　 I have wondered if putting water sprayers into our smokestacks will remove the carbon dioxide making acid water. That acid water can be mixed with soil to make soft rock. The soft rock can be used for landfill. Perhaps we can remove carbon dioxide in our smokestacks before it gets into our atmosphere in this way?
What gases are produced when natural gas is burnt?
If you acheive perfect combustion then only CO2 and water are produced. If there is not the right ratio of fuel to air or if there is other substances in the gas then you could end up with carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, or sulfates that produce acid rain.
What is an agent of chemical weathering which combines with water to form a Carbonic acid?
Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere combines with water to form carbonic acid, it is a form of acid rain.
What is the difference between acid rain and global warming?
Acid rain is a physical thing, actual rain that has dissolved chemicals from the atmosphere (carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides). This turns the rain acidic and causes damage on the earth below. Global warming is the rise in temperature all round the world caused by excessive amounts of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.
What are the risks of using oil as fuel think about global warming and acid rain?
Burning oil produces a green house gas, called carbon dioxide (co2), which causes acid rain, as well as obviously global warming.
Could carbon monoxide causes acid rain?
Not directly; carbon doxide can cause an acid rain.
Which contributes to acid rain?
Acid rain is acidic by certain pollutants in the air like, carbon monoxide/ dioxide.
Who is fault is acid rain?
Sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide and fuel emissions.
What gases make acid rain?
ammonium, carbon, nitrogen, and sulphur
Is there dihydrogen monoxide in acid rain?
Yes, there is water is all kinds of rain. (Dihydrogen monoxide is a tricky way of saying H2O which is water.)
Acid rain is a product of carbon dioxide and rain.?
false
What does the term acid rain?
acid rain is when rain contains weak carbonic acid. This rain, as it falls, picks up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and the air. all rain is slightly acidic because of carbon dioxide but it does no harm to us whatsoever.
When methane is burned why doesn't it cause acid rain?
well I'm only eleven but i know the answer, yes it does but if you want to know how its makes acid rain it got something to do with the atmosphere and carbon dioxide Re: What the heck? Obviously methane has to do with the atmosphere and carbon dioxide, OH radicals in the atmosphere break methane into carbon dioxide and water. But no, methane does NOT cause acid rain! Acid rain is caused by sulphur and nitrogen oxides in clouds. Methane is simply a green-house-gas, it can't cause acid rain because it has a pKa of ~56 (weak acid), which is why a strong base such as OH- is required to break it.

What gas does acid rain make?
Acid rain does not make gas.
What is pH of acid rain?
Acid rain has a pH of 5.0 or less. Rain reacts with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and forms a mildly acidic carbonic acid before it becomes rain.
What element causes acid rain?
an element is not the cause of acid rain but a compound called carbon dioxide co2.
What elements make acid rain?
Although all rain is slightly acidic due to carbon dioxide absorbed from air, the principle causes of problem acid rain are oxides of sulphur and nitrogen from fossil fuel combustion.
