Vedclass · Answer

(A) The reaction of $Sulphur \ dioxide$ $(SO_2)$ with water molecules present in the atmosphere forms $Sulphuric \ acid$ $(H_2SO_4)$,which leads to acid rain.This acid rain reacts with the calcium carbonate $(CaCO_3)$ of the marble,causing decolouring,cracks,and decomposition of the monument.The proximity of the $Mathura \ Refinery$ to the $Taj \ Mahal$ is a major source of $SO_2$ emissions.Therefore,the correct answer is $Sulphur \ dioxide$.
