  • True
  • False
Q.2
Volatile Organic Compounds + NOx + sunlight energy can cause a secondary pollutant called
  • acid rain
  • gray air or London Smog
  • Brown air smog
  • ground-level ozone
Q.3
What is the major cause for air pollution?
  • deforestation
  • oil spills

  • particulate matter
  • carbon monoxide
  • stratospheric ozone
  • tropospheric ozone
Q.7
This primary pollutant creates a reddish brown gas creating photochemical smog and tropospheric ozone.
