Yes, burning coal releases carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These all combine with rain to form acid rain. Carbon dioxide actually forms a very weak acid rain but the others are more damaging.
co2+h20= carbonic acid
the acids mix with water in the air and fall to earth as acid rain
The burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, releases sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) into the atmosphere. These gases react with water vapor and other atmospheric components to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which can then combine with rain droplets to form acid precipitation. This acid precipitation can have harmful effects on ecosystems, including damage to vegetation, soil, and aquatic life.
All coal has some amount of sulfur in it. The sulfur burns into sulfur dioxide, which reacts with water to make sulfurous acid in the rain.

Chemicals released from burning coal cause pollution in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide contributes to global warming. Other pollutants cause acid rain.
acid rain
Burning coal
acid precipitation or "acid rain" is caused by coal fired power plants disgorging pollution into the air. the particles of pollution adhere to the moisture in the air and fall attached to the rain drops.
It contributes by the burning of fossil fuels like coal that realeases sulphur
