Nitrogen oxides react with pollutants in the presence of sunlight to form what?
Ozone
Is ground ozone a primary or secondary pollutant?
Secondary Pollutant
Is ozone a primary pollutant?
No, Ozone is not a primary pollutant, it is a pollutant near ground level. However, it keeps many ultraviolet rays from reaching the Earth.
What is a form of oxygen that is a pollutant in the trophosphere?
Ozone
What is a secondary pollutant?
A secondary pollutant is not directly emitted, it is formed in the atmosphere when primary pollutants are mixed as through chemical and photochemical reaction. For example, a secondary pollution would be ozone which is formed when hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides combine in sunlight
What three poluntants react in the presence of sunlight to produce ozone?
Nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and volatile organic compounds are the three pollutants that react in the presence of sunlight to produce ozone. They are also called the ozone precursors.
Why is ozone called a secondary pollutant?
Ozone is called a secondary pollutant because it is not directly emitted into the atmosphere. Instead, it is formed from chemical reactions between primary pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the presence of sunlight. These reactions produce ozone as a secondary byproduct, which can be harmful to human health and the environment.
What produces surface ozone?
Vehicles produce ground ozone. It is a pollutant.
Ozone is a pollutant?
Yes, in the troposphere, ozone is a pollutant.
Is ozone considered to be a serious pollutant?
Yes, it is. But only ground ozone is pollutant.
What ozone layer is a secondary pollutant?
The ozone at ground is a secondary pollutant. It is also called bad ozone.
