Yes there is a direct relationship between acid rain and corrosion. When petroleum burns, it produces oxides of nitrogen and that
rise up into the atmosphere. There they get mixed by wind and undergo chemical
reactions with sunlight and moisture. After some days, the sulfuric acid and nitric acid particles fall as acid rain. So not only sulphuric acid is involved but nitric acid also plays an important role. Due to acidic features acid rain eats into the stone surfaces at
once. These particles settle into crevices and molding, and
the damage they create comes later. When rain comes in contact with the
deposits corrosion is there.
