excessive release of `NH_(3)` by industrial plants and coal gas
excessive release of CO in atmosphere by incomplete combustion of coke, charcoal and other CARBONACEOUS f i .1el in paucity of oxygen.

Solution :When `SO_(2)` pollution in air is much higher. Sometimes,
`SO_(2)` mixes in the air with small particles of metals nearthe2factories and gets oxidised into sulphur trioxide `SO_(3)`. These gases are harmful and they react with waterto form sulphuric acid `(H_(2)SO_(4))` or sulphurous acid `(H_(2)SO_3)`and come down to earth with rain water, it iscalled acid rain or acid precipitation.
