Acid rain is formed when sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are released into the atmosphere and react with water vapor to form sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and nitric acid (HNO3). Here are the balanced chemical equations for the formation of acid rain:

It's important to note that these reactions represent simplified versions of the complex processes occurring in the atmosphere. The actual formation of acid rain involves multiple reactions and intermediates.
