The atmosphere of planet 'X' is made up of carbon dioxide. Chemical reactions between the atmosphere and the surface of 'X' make clouds of sulphuric acid. The sulphuric acid rain never reaches the ground, but is evaporated by the heat before reaching the surface in a phenomenon known as virga.

Solution

The correct option is C Venus
Jupiter has acidic rain on its surface so this cant be the answer
and mars and mercury are not made up of carbon dioxide and are made up of solid surface.
So the correct option is B
