Upper part of soil highly acidic in nature

Upper part of soil contain most of non metallic oxide. e.g ,Co2,Sio2 etc.

We know non metallic oxide are acidic in nature because when nonmetallic oxide hydrolyzed produces acid.
Co2+H2o=H2Co3
No2+H2o=HNo3
Thats why upper part of soil highly acidic in nature.
