Which consequence results when enhanced rainwater acidity affects karst regions?

A)Accelerated subsurface void formation arises
B)Increased silicon concentration of regional soils
C)Reduced aluminum solubility in waterways
D)Depletion of feldspar deposits accelerates rapidly

💡 Explanation

Increased acidity enhances the dissolution of calcium carbonate in limestone regions; this chemical weathering, known as carbonation, accelerates formation of subsurface voids because acid breaks down the rock, rather than altering soil composition, therefore increasing subsurface collapses.
