Explain how the use of fossil fuels can cause lakes and ponds to become more acidic.

Explained below

Explanation:

Fossil fuels which are made up of coal and oil when burnt by power-production industries, make sulfur to be released into the atmosphere where it combines with oxygen to form SO2 (sulfur Dioxide). Now, the exhausts possessed by cars could also cause the formation of nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere. Therefore, H2SO4 which is airborne sulfuric acid and HNO3 which is nitric acid can be formed and when dissolved in the water vapor in the atmosphere form what is called acid rain.

Now, as acid rain flows through the soil, it can leach aluminum from the soil clay particles and then flow into the lakes to make them more acidic.
