    One of the following acts as secondary pollutant

    A)  \[B{{r}_{2}}\]              

    B)  \[C{{l}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[N{{O}_{2}}\]

    D)  \[HN{{O}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Primary pollutants are the pollutants which enter the air directly from the source, eg, \[N{{O}_{2}},B{{r}_{2}},C{{l}_{2}},CO\], DDT, etc. Secondary pollutants develop from the interaction of primary pollutants and atmosphere constituents, eg, oxides of nitrogen react with atmospheric moisture (water vapour) and form \[HN{{O}_{3}}\] which results in acid rain.
