Some examples of pollutants include carbon monoxide (carbon emissions into the air) and lead emissions into water sources. Most of the lead and metallic substances that end up in the river streams are from industrial processes.
chemicals and waste products are examples of pollutants
They are suspensions and pollutants.
Examples of physical pollutants include litter, industrial waste, plastic debris, and sediment runoff. These pollutants can harm ecosystems, clog waterways, and impact wildlife by disrupting their habitats.
Some examples of toxic pollutants listed in the gizmo may include heavy metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium; organic pollutants like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and pesticides; as well as other harmful substances such as dioxins and solvents. These pollutants can have harmful effects on human health and the environment.
Qualitative pollutants refer to pollutants that can be observed directly through sensory experiences, such as odor or color. These pollutants may not necessarily have specific numerical measurements associated with them but can still pose health and environmental risks. Examples include foul odors, discoloration of water bodies, or visible particulate matter in the air.
Fertilizers such as nitrates and phosphates are examples of water pollutants known as nutrient pollutants. These nutrients can cause eutrophication in bodies of water, leading to excessive algae growth and oxygen depletion, which can harm aquatic ecosystems.

Primary air pollutants include sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM). These pollutants are directly emitted into the atmosphere from sources like vehicles, industrial processes, and power plants.
Organic pollutants, such as carbon compounds, can serve as a food source for bacteria. These bacteria can break down the pollutants through biodegradation processes. Some common examples include hydrocarbons, solvents, and pesticides.
An example of air pollution would be smog. Smog is formed when haze or fog combines with smoke from factories. Smog can be seen frequently in China and other cities where factories are constantly working, blowing smoke and other pollutants into the air, or cities that are overrun by automobiles.
secondary pollutants are pollutants that form when primary pollutants react with other primary pollutants or with naturally occurring substances
Yes they are pollutants. They are secondary pollutants.
