How is ozone different from other pollutants?
Ozone is different from other pollutants. It is a secondary pollutant.
What type of pollutants is ozone and smog?
Ozone and smog are secondary pollutants. They are not primary ones.
What kind of pollutants are found in venice canals?
The pollutants found in Venice canals include organic waste and sewage, heavy metals, debris and litter, oils and greases, and pollutants from boat traffic. These pollutants can have negative effects on the water quality and the ecosystem of the canals. Measures are being taken to reduce these pollutants and protect the canals' environmental health.
What is the name of the pollutants produced by humans destroying the ozone layer?
CFC's are the pollutants. They react with ozone to deplete it.
How does the ozone layer and pollutants connect to UV?
The ozone layer connects to UV to decomposing. Air pollutants decompose with UV too.
When do maximum ground level concentrations of pollutants occur in mountain valleys?
Maximum ground level concentrations occur a few hours after sunrise when inversion layers are broken up and brought to the ground.

What has the author Jenny Kingston written?
Jenny Kingston has written: 'The development of a passive sampling system for the determination of time-averaged concentrations of organic pollutants in aqueous environments'
Why are excessive concentrations of phosphorus sometimes considered a pollutants?
Phosphate helps weedy species of plants to grow, taking up large amounts of oxygen and blocking sunlight to other species (eutrophication).
What are secondary pollutants and how do they form.?
secondary pollutants are pollutants that form when primary pollutants react with other primary pollutants or with naturally occurring substances
What are ozone and smog pollutants?
Yes they are pollutants. They are secondary pollutants.
What is a harmful substance added to the environment?

What substance found in sea water that comes from the atmosphere?

What is the difference between secondary and primary pollutants?
Some Primary pollutants are like when humans directly put them in the air Secondary pollutants are like when pollutants react with Primary and other Primary pollutants.
Pollutants suchs as ozone or smog are what kind of pollutants?
they are Gaseous
What do you call the stuff that causes pollution?
Pollutants.a-Stock pollutantsPollutants that the environment has little or no absorptive capacity are called stock pollutants[2](e.g. persistent synthetic chemicals, non-biodegradableplastics, and heavy metals). Stock pollutants accumulate in the environment over time. The damage they cause increases as more pollutant is emitted, and persists as the pollutant accumulates. Stock pollutants can create a burden for future generations by passing on damage that persists well after the benefits received from incurring that damage have been forgotten.[2][edit]b-Fund pollutantsFund pollutants are those for which the environment has some absorptive capacity. Fund pollutants do not cause damage to the environment unless the emission rate exceeds the receiving environment's absorptive capacity (e.g. carbon dioxide, which is absorbed by plants and oceans).[2]Fund pollutants are not destroyed, but rather converted into less harmful substances, or diluted/dispersed to non-harmful concentrations.[2][edit]Notable pollutantsNotable pollutants include the following groups:Heavy metalsPersistent organic pollutants POPEnvironmental Persistent Pharmaceutical Pollutants EPPPPolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbonsVolatile organic compoundsEnvironmental xenobiotics
