"Carbon dioxide plays a vital role in dissolving and precipitation of rocks in the formation of karst topography." Evaluate this statement.
A) It is false. The statement should read sulfur dioxide, not carbon dioxide.
B) It is false. Carbon dioxide does dissolve in water to form acid, but only at the surface where water is exposed to air.
C) It is partially true. Carbon dioxide does form acid to aid in dissolving limestone but has nothing to do with precipitation of rocks.
D) It is true. Carbon dioxide plays a vital role in these processes.
