What else can I help you with?
Why does burning fossil fuel pollute the air?
It produces carbon monoxide and other pollutants.
Which fossil fuel produces the lowest overall levels of air pollutants?
Natural gas.
Combustion as a source of energy can lead to formation of air pollutants like CO and NO and how can each of these pollutants form from the combustion of fuel?
There is carbon and nitrogen in fuel. Burning it with oxygen (incomplete) produces CO and NO.
What are some pollutants produces by the burning of fuels?
The Burning of fossil fuels produces carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, and sulfur dioxide. They also produce particulates such as dust and soot.
Does Lightning clean the atmosphere?
Yes, lightning can help clean the atmosphere by producing ozone, which can break down pollutants and improve air quality. Additionally, lightning can also trigger chemical reactions that help remove pollutants from the air.
What forms when pollutants react in the presence of sunlight?
Photochemical smog forms when pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds react in the presence of sunlight. This reaction produces ground-level ozone, which is a harmful air pollutant that can cause respiratory issues and other health problems.
Which of the following substance is not involved in the chemical reaction that produces smog?
Water vapor is not typically involved in the chemical reaction that produces smog. Smog is primarily formed by the interaction of sunlight with pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds. Water vapor can play a role in the formation of secondary pollutants within smog, but it is not a primary component of the initial chemical reactions.
How can you protect yourself from pollutants like carbon dioxide?
tree planting because when we inhale we got oxygen and when we exhale we produces carbon dioxide which the plants needed.
Does propane burn cleaner than natural gas?
Propane burns cleaner than natural gas because it produces fewer emissions and pollutants when burned.
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 are emissions?
To emit means to send out, or let out. Emission means letting out of something, mostly in the air, anything from body gas to carbon. Any factory that manufactures and produces, the company releases the pollutants of the raw materials. So to short up, emissions are the release of pollutants into the air.
