Final answer:

Rain on Venus consists of sulfuric acid drops that evaporate before reaching the surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option D: It has sulfuric acid rain in its atmosphere, but the drops evaporate before hitting the surface.

In the upper troposphere of Venus, there is a thick cloud layer composed primarily of sulfuric acid droplets. These drops of sulfuric acid rain do not reach the surface of Venus, as they evaporate before reaching it.
