white smoke is coming out of tailpipe while driving vehicle in accelerated position. when i step on the gas, white smoke comes out, but when i have my foot on the brake, no smoke. so the white smoke only comes out during acceleration of vehicle. i added 2 quarts of oil afterwards because i thought the oil was low. what could be wrong?

Could be the head gasket. Take off the oil cap and see if there is a milky substance on the cap or in the filler hole.
