There are at least two elements which when burnt contribute to acid rain.
Sulfur which when burnt and mixed with rain water forms sulphuric acid H2SO4
and
Carbon which when burnt and mixed with water forms carbonic acid H2CO3
Both of these acids can be formed by burning Fossil fuels and also form naturally in the gases discharged by volcanoes.
burning fossil fuels causes a movement of carbon from the Earth's crust into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
fossil fuels produce sulfur dioxide when burned because sulfur is present in them. things like coal which is carbon or gas which is a hydrocarbon are examples of this. fossil fuels are bad because sulfur dioxide causes acid rain. hope this helps :)
it is where dead animals and plants rot in the soil and then turn into fossil fuel. The combustion of fossil fuels is where humans use them inappropriately and burn then for fuel in factories and places which harm the enviroment
No, aluminum is not a fossil fuel. It is a metal to which different alloys are added for specific applications.
No, hydrogen is not a fossil fuel because it is not derived from ancient organic matter like oil, coal, and natural gas. Hydrogen is an element that can be sourced from a variety of resources, including water, biomass, and renewable electricity.
Sulfur is the element present in impurities in fossil fuels that can produce sulfur dioxide when the fuel burns.
No. Uranium is an element.
Sulphur Impurities! Coal and oil contain sulfur impurities. When these fuels burn, the sulfur burns too which releases sulfur dioxide (SO 2) gas. Sulfur dioxide causes breathing problems for living creatures and contributes to acid rain.

No, sulfur is not a fossil fuel. Fossil fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas that are derived from the remains of ancient plants and animals. Sulfur is a naturally occurring element that can be found in various minerals and is not considered a fuel source.
carbon
Time
fossil fuels and breathing causes carbon dioxide :)
carbon
Carbon is the element of the life and fossil fuels.
carbon mostly and hyrogen
Oh yes.
