Is it
The Great Green Wall? The initiative in Africa to combat desertification?

What two gases are responsible for acid rain? Include the reactions that produce their respective acids.

Haha lol, test-writers in Green Gen don't always follow the rules so its good to know stuff from last year (I guess that's the advantage to having put up with Green Gen for an extra year :D ). But to answer your questions
The two compounds are SO2 and NOX. Depending on if its NO or NO2 different acids will form. But here they are

2SO2+O2-->2 SO3 
SO3 + H2O --> H2SO4

NO+H2O--> HNO2
NO2+H2O--> HNO3

Since there is no question posed might as well do one myself:

What type biome can the Antarctic continent be classified as?

Btw, is there a specific time you need to ask a question within? If so, how long?
