vodomira [7]

Answer:

Wet deposition

Explanation:

when the chemicals produced in the Earth can evaporate and reach the clouds, it will mixed with the water inside the clouds and form a slightly acid water than when is time to deposit the water into the Earth as snow, rain, fog or mist, the chemicals will travel with the water dissolved in it.

When they reach the soil, eventually, the water will  evaporate or will be absorbed by soil, so the chemicals that are left behind, will reach the surface of Earth.

Depending where the chemicals were deposit, they can contaminate the sea, or other water bodies, or soil areas of crops, buildings, etc.
