A hint t get you started. Generation of electricity by burning coal. Increase CO2 and SO2 (S is in most coal that is burned). CO2 becomes H2CO3 and SO2 becomes SO3 then H2SO4. Nitrogen oxides, usually described as NO<sub>x</sub> come from the tail pipe of cars when fuel is burned. More people, more cars, more NO<sub>x</sub> which dissolves in water to form HNO<sub>x</sub>.
