What are the 3 main atmospheric pollutants?
There are many, including Ozone, Carbon Monoxide, and Particulate Matter.
What pollutants do vehicles produce?
CO2, Carbon particulate matter PM, (in the past Lead pollution). CO, NOx and unburnt hydrocarbons.
Which two air pollutants are measured in the Air Quality Index to predict air quality and the level of health concern for humans?
Particulate matter and ozone.
What are the primary air pollutants?
The five primary air pollutants are carbon monoxide(CO), nitrogen oxides(NOx), sulfur dioxide(SO2), volatile organic(VOCs), and particulate matter(particulates or PM). ------->From natasha, FL lolx
In addition to gasses what else does the air contain?
In addition to gases air contains: dust particles, water vapour, pollen grains, particulate pollutants etc.
What are some particulate matter effects?
Particulate matter is a type of air pollution that consists of both liquid and solid particles suspended in the ambient air. This pollution may cause damage to living beings, specifically to their breathing system. The primary pollutants in particulate matter is Nitrogen Dioxide and Ozone, the primary contributor in global warming. In large concentrations, particulate matter could even create low visibility, commonly known as smog. This is highly detrimental to the air transportation industries.
What is an example of particulate matter?
Material suspended in the air in the form of minute solid particles or liquid droplets, especially when considered as an atmospheric pollutant.
What effect does pollutants form the exhausts emissions have on air quality?
Cars emit greenhouse gasses, such as carbon dioxide, which contribute to global warming. Some air pollutants and particulate matter from cars can be deposited on soil and surface waters where they enter the food chain and can affect the reproductive, respiratory, immune and neurological systems of animals.
What type of pollutants can diesel emit?
Diesel exhaust may contain:D.P.M. That's is diesel particulate matter. Microscopic particles that stick inside your lungs.Unburned dieselSulfate particulatesAldehydes and ketonesLighter hydrocarbons from cracked dieselCarbon dioxideNitrogen oxides
What are polluters?
Organic pollutants are persistent organic pollutants(POPs). Examples are DDT and lindane, industrial chemicals such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and substances such as dioxins, all of which accumulate and are slow to degrade, and may have adverse impacts on human health and the environment.
What the air is like outside is called?
The air outside is called atmospheric air or outdoor air. It consists of a mixture of gases including nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and others, as well as various pollutants and particulate matter.
Is matter particulate or continuous?
yes, matter continues or particulate
