Vedclass · Answer

(D) Photochemical smog is a type of air pollution that occurs in warm,dry,and sunny climates. It is formed by the action of sunlight on nitrogen oxides $(NO_x)$ and volatile organic compounds $(VOCs)$ emitted by automobiles and industries. The reaction produces secondary pollutants like ozone $(O_3)$,formaldehyde,and peroxyacetyl nitrate $(PAN)$. These pollutants are suspended in the atmosphere and cause respiratory issues,eye irritation,and damage to vegetation. Therefore,photochemical smog is directly related to air pollution. Hence,the correct answer is $D$.
