Under the right conditions, chlorine will react with carbon monoxide to form phosgene gas, COCl2. This is unlikely to happen at the tailpipe of your vehicle since the reaction normally requires the presence of a catalyst such as activated carbon.

How is the atmosphere damaged by air pollution?

Pollution can affect the atmosphere, more specifically the Ozone layer, because CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons) and other chemicals react with the Ozone (O3) and turn into Chlorine monoxide (ClO) and an oxygen molecule (O2) which then starts the deterioration of the Ozone layer. Chlorine monoxide then reacts with an oxygen atom (O) and create a chlorine atom and an oxygen molecule (O2). The chlorine atom can then react with another Ozone molecule (O3) to form Chlorine monoxide (ClO) and an Oxygen molecule (O2) and the cycle continues.

Does oxygen react with carbon?

Yes, the reaction creates carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. C + O2 -------> CO2 and 2C + O2 -----> 2CO
