345091 Select the correct statement
I. Automobiles are a major cause for atmospheric pollution atleast in the metro cities.
II. Proper maintenance of automobiles along with use of plumbum-free petrol or diesel can reduce the pollutants they emit.
III. Catalytic converters, use expensive metals namely platinum-polonium and rhodium as the catalysts
IV. Unburnt hydrocarbons are converted into carbon dioxide and water, and carbon monoxide and nitric oxide are changed to carbon dioxide and nitrogenoxide gas, respectively.
V. Motor vehicles equipped with catalytic converter should use unleaded petrol because lead in the petrol activates the catalyst
