Which outcome results when highly acidic rainfall accelerates mineral weathering?

💡 Explanation

Increased acidification accelerates chemical weathering and dissolution, resulting in leaching of previously insoluble minerals; this enhances dissolved ion concentration in streams and groundwater, rather than inhibiting plant growth, because nutrient availability shifts from solid to liquid phase.
