Acidic oxides causes acid rain. SO2, NO2 are gases for examples.
Non-metallic oxides are acidic. Some are gases and readily dissolve in water. Others react with bases, such as silica, SiO2 and B2O3
No, elemental sulfur (S) is not acidic, mainly because it is insoluble with water.However both sulfur oxides: SO2 and SO3 are acid forming oxides (weak and strong respectively), like most nonmetal oxides are in nature.
Rain becomes naturally acidic when it reacts with gases in the atmosphere, such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, forming sulfuric acid and nitric acid. These gases are released primarily from human activities like burning fossil fuels, industrial processes, and transportation.
The acid rains are due to acidic gases within the the atmosphere. Gases like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides get dissolved in the rain water, making the water very acidic. They lower the PH of the water below 3 from time to time. This sort of strong acidic water when falls on buildings/rocks, it tends to eat away their surface. So in this manner acidic rain cause weathering.
acidic gases - e.g. oxides of non-metals - so oxides of sulfur and nitrogen will form acids

A rain that contains gases is ACID RAIN.It contains oxides of sulphur and nitrogen.
Trick question. Group 18 are the noble gases and none of these forms oxides!
Nitrogen and oxygen.
gases emitted during volcano eruptions are basically oxides of shulphur,etc
1. Iron and iron oxides are solids. 2. Carbon oxides are gases.
