Which oxide of nitrogen is not a common pollutant introduced into the atmosphere both due to natural and human activity?
1 \(\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{5}\)
2 \(\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)
3 \({\text{NO}}\)
4 \(\mathrm{NO}_{2}\)
Explanation:
The oxidised hydrocarbons and ozone in the presence of humidity cause photochemical smog. Hydrocarbons \(+\mathrm{O}_{2}, \mathrm{NO}_{2}, \mathrm{NO}, \mathrm{O}_{3} \longrightarrow\) Peroxides, formaldehyde, peroxyacetylnitrate (PAN), acrolein, etc. Hence chloroflurocarbons are not common component of photochemical smog.

The pollution due to oxides of sulphur gets enhanced due to the presence of: (a) particulate matter (b) ozone (c) hydrocarbons (d) hydrogen peroxide Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
1 (a), (b), (d) only
2 (b), (c), (d) only
3 (a), (c), (d) only
4 (a), (d) only
